常見錯誤

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

×I need some informations about the course.

I need some information about the course.

在英文中,'information' 是不可數名詞,沒有複數形式。不能加 's',也不能與 'a/an' 或數字連用。

×He gave me a good information.

He gave me some good information. / He gave me a piece of good information.

因為 'information' 不可數,不能直接與不定冠詞 'a/an' 連用。若要表示「一則」或「一條」資訊,需使用量詞如 'a piece of', 'a bit of', 'an item of'。

×I'm looking for information of the new policy.

I'm looking for information about/on the new policy.

表示「關於...的資訊」時,正確的介系詞是 'about' 或 'on',而不是 'of'。'on' 通常用於較正式或詳細的資訊。

×The information are correct.

The information is correct.

由於 'information' 是不可數名詞,它總是接單數動詞 (is, was, has, provides 等)。

×How many information did you find?

How much information did you find?

詢問 'information' 的數量時,因為它是不可數名詞,必須使用 'much', 'a lot of', 'little',而不是 'many', 'few'。

×Please send me the informacion.

Please send me the information.

常見的拼字錯誤,將結尾的 '-tion' 誤拼為其他形式,如 '-cion', '-sion', '-tian'。記住標準拼法是 'information'。
