用法說明
How is "Gas" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Gas"?
gas up vs. gas
- gas up 是一個完整的動詞片語，意思是「給車輛加滿汽油」，強調完成加油這個動作。
- 單獨使用 gas 作為動詞，在美式英語中同樣表示「加油」，但語體上更為口語和簡潔。兩者常可互換，但 "gas up" 更常指加滿油箱。
- 在英式英語中，對應的動詞通常是 petrol 或片語 fill up (with petrol)。 EN: We need to gas up the car before the long trip. 翻譯: 長途旅行前，我們需要把車加滿油。
EN:I have to gas the lawnmower before I can mow the grass.
翻譯:我得先給割草機加油，才能修剪草坪。

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Gas"?Which "Gas" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×He gassed the car yesterday.
✓He put gas in the car yesterday. / He filled up the car with gas yesterday.
「gas」作為動詞時，通常指「用毒氣攻擊」或「空談」，而不是「加油」。表示「為車輛加油」應使用「put gas in」、「fill up with gas」或「refuel」。
×The soldiers gas the prisoners.
✓The soldiers gassed the prisoners.
動詞「gas」的過去式及過去分詞為「gassed」，需要雙寫「s」再加「-ed」。這是規則動詞中，字尾為單一子音且前面為短母音時需雙寫的拼字規則。
×He was just gassing for hours.
✓He was just gassing on for hours.
動詞「gas」在非正式用法中意為「空談、閒聊」，通常與介系詞「on」連用（gas on），或使用「gas about something」。單獨使用「gas」而不接介系詞或受詞較不自然。
×We gas our home for heating.
✓We heat our home with natural gas. / Our home uses natural gas for heating.
動詞「gas」沒有「使用天然氣」的意思。應使用「use natural gas」或「heat/cook with gas」等表達方式。動詞「gas」在此語境下會產生誤解。
×I gassed by my friend's long story.
✓I was gassed by my friend's long story. (informal/British)
在非正式英式英語中，「be gassed」可表示「感到非常疲倦」。使用時必須用被動語態（be + gassed）。主動語態「I gassed」在此意思是「我施放了毒氣」，語意完全錯誤。
