常見錯誤

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

×I garage my car.

I put my car in the garage.

在英文中,'garage' 作為動詞使用較為正式且不常見於日常口語。一般口語中,會使用 'put in the garage' 或 'park in the garage' 來表達將車停入車庫。

×She garages at the office building.

She parks her car at the office building.

'Garage' 作為動詞時,其受詞通常是車輛本身,且隱含將車停入一個有遮蔽的建築物(車庫)的語義。泛指在建築物旁或露天停車場停車時,應使用 'park'。

×We are garaging the old furniture.

We are storing the old furniture in the garage.

'Garage' 作為動詞主要與車輛搭配。若要表達將非車輛的物品存放在車庫,應使用 'store (something) in the garage'。

×The car needs to be garaged.

The car should be kept in the garage.

雖然 'garage' 作為及物動詞可用於被動語態(如:The vehicle is garaged for the winter.),但在許多情境下聽起來過於正式或技術性。一般建議使用更口語化的表達,如 'kept in the garage'。

×I will garage there.

I will park (my car) there.

'Garage' 作為動詞是及物動詞,必須接一個受詞(通常是車輛)。它不能像不及物動詞 'park' 一樣單獨使用。
