常見錯誤

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

×I gutted the fish to clean it.

I gutted the fish to clean it.

雖然句子本身文法正確,但學習者常誤以為 'gut' 僅用於清理魚類。實際上,'gut' 作為動詞可廣泛用於移除各種動物或物體的內部,並有比喻用法。

×He was gutting by the bad news.

He was gutted by the bad news.

'Gut' 作為動詞描述「摧毀內部」或「使極度沮喪」時,其被動語態是 'be gutted',而非 'be gutting'。'Gutting' 是現在分詞或動名詞,用於主動語態或修飾。

×We need to gut out the old pipes.

We need to gut the old pipes.

動詞 'gut' 本身已包含「徹底移除內部」的意思,直接接受詞即可,不需要加上多餘的副詞 'out'。加上 'out' 是受其他動詞片語(如 'clean out')影響的錯誤類推。

×I will gut my room this weekend. (meaning: I will clean my room)

I will clean up / tidy my room this weekend.

'Gut' 意味著「徹底清空或摧毀內部結構」,用於房間時暗示拆除牆壁、櫥櫃等固定物,並非一般的「打掃」或「整理」。用於日常打掃房間是嚴重用詞錯誤。

×His criticism gutted my confidence.

His criticism gutted my confidence.

句子本身正確,但學習者可能不熟悉 'gut' 這個強烈的比喻用法,誤以為只能指物理上的破壞。此處 'gutted my confidence' 意為「徹底摧毀了我的信心」,是常見且地道的用法。
