根據轉移的對象(個人、上級或群體)和目的(移交、提交或分發)來選擇正確的動詞片語。
hand vs give
「hand」強調親手、直接地傳遞,通常涉及實體物品;「give」則泛指給予,範圍更廣,可以是抽象或具體的事物。
hand vs pass
「hand」強調有控制、小心地遞交,通常給特定對象;「pass」則較為通用,指將物品從一處移到另一處,可能不指定接收者。
hand vs deliver
「hand」指近距離、親手的個人傳遞;「deliver」則指運送或遞送到某個地點(如郵件、包裹),不一定親手交給接收者本人。
在口語中,'hand' 常用來引述或轉述一個動作,特別是傳遞物品或責任時,語氣較為隨意。 EN: "Can you hand me that book?" 翻譯: "你可以把那本書遞給我嗎?"
EN:"He just handed me the keys and left."
翻譯:"他就把鑰匙塞給我然後走了。"
在非正式對話中,'hand' 常與副詞連用,以強調動作的突然性、隨意性或最終性,使語氣更生動。 EN: "She just handed in her resignation out of the blue." 翻譯: "她毫無預警地就遞交了辭呈。"
EN:"Hand it over. Now."
翻譯:"交出來。現在馬上。"
在思考或組織語句時,'hand' 的相關片語(如 'on the other hand')有時會被拉長或拆分,作為自然的停頓填充詞。 EN: "I like the design... on the other hand... the price is a bit high." 翻譯: "我喜歡這個設計… 不過話說回來… 價格是有點高。"
EN:"Well, on one hand it's convenient, but... hand... it's also expensive."
翻譯:"嗯,一方面它很方便,但是… 這個… 它也很貴。"
正式書寫注意:在正式報告或學術寫作中,應避免使用過於口語化的 'hand' 動詞搭配(如 'hand it over')或拆分的填充用法。建議使用更精確的動詞(如 'submit', 'transfer', 'deliver')和完整的轉折語(如 'conversely', 'however')。

×Please hand me the book.
✓Please hand the book to me.
當 'hand' 作為動詞表示「遞給」時,通常使用 'hand + 物品 + to + 人' 的結構,或 'hand + 人 + 物品'。原句語序不自然,是受中文「遞給我」語序影響的直譯錯誤。
×He handed in his homework for the teacher.
✓He handed his homework to the teacher.
'Hand in' 是「提交(給機構或上級)」的片語動詞,後面直接接提交的物品(如報告、作業),通常不接 'for + 人'。若要明確指出交給某個特定的人,應使用 'hand something to someone'。
×The decision was handed from the boss.
✓The decision was handed down from the boss.
表示上級或權威「下達、宣布(決定、判決)」時,應使用片語動詞 'hand down'。單獨使用 'hand' 無法表達此含義。
×Can you hand over me the keys?
✓Can you hand the keys over to me?
片語動詞 'hand over'(交出、移交)的受詞(通常是物品)可以放在 'hand' 和 'over' 之間,或放在整個片語之後。但受詞為代名詞(如 it, them)時,必須放在中間。原句將受詞 'me'(人)誤放在 'over' 之後,且語序混亂。
×He is good at handing difficult customers.
✓He is good at handling difficult customers.
這是混淆 'hand'(傳遞、交給)和 'handle'(處理、應對)的常見錯誤。'Handle' 才是表示「處理(情況、問題、人際關係)」的正確動詞。
