常見錯誤

What are common mistakes with "Fresh"?Which "Fresh" sentences look correct but are wrong?

×I need to buy some freshs vegetables.

I need to buy some fresh vegetables.

"Fresh" is an adjective and does not have a plural form. Do not add "-s" to it, even when describing plural nouns.

×This milk is not fresh. It tastes badly.

This milk is not fresh. It tastes bad.

The linking verb "taste" should be followed by an adjective (e.g., bad, sour, fresh) to describe the subject, not an adverb (badly). "Tastes badly" would imply the milk's ability to taste things is poor.

×I want to start a fresh.

I want to start fresh / make a fresh start.

"Fresh" as an adverb meaning "anew" is used without an article (e.g., start fresh, begin fresh). When used as a noun in the phrase "a fresh start," it requires the noun "start."

×Open the window to get some fresh airs.

Open the window to get some fresh air.

The noun "air" in the fixed phrase "fresh air" is uncountable and should not be pluralized.

×He is fresh in this company.

He is new to this company.

While "fresh" can mean "newly arrived" (e.g., a fresh recruit), it is less common for describing people in a general company context. "New to [a place/organization]" is the more standard and natural phrase.
