常見錯誤

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

×I juiced two juices from the oranges.

I juiced two oranges.

As a verb, 'juice' means to extract juice from something. The object should be the fruit/vegetable itself, not the liquid result. Don't use 'juice' as a countable noun object for the verb 'juice'.

×He juiced the apples yesterday. (pronounced with a 't' sound)

He juiced the apples yesterday. (pronounced with a 'd' sound: /dʒuːst/)

The verb 'juice' is regular. Its past tense and past participle are formed by adding '-d' (juiced). Learners sometimes mistakenly treat it as irregular or mispronounce the '-ed' ending.

×I need to juice up. (intending to mean 'drink juice')

I need to have some juice. / I need to drink some juice.

'Juice' as a verb means to extract liquid. It is not a direct synonym for 'drink juice'. The phrasal verb 'juice up' is informal and means to energize or add power, not simply to consume juice.

×This machine is used to juice.

This machine is used to juice fruits and vegetables.

The verb 'juice' is typically transitive and requires an object (what is being juiced). It sounds incomplete without specifying the source.

×He juiced the exam. (intending to mean 'aced' or 'energized for')

He aced the exam. / He was juiced up for the exam.

In informal slang, 'juiced' can mean excited or under the influence of steroids, and 'juice up' can mean to energize. Using 'juice' to mean 'excel at' is not standard. Learners should avoid overapplying slang meanings in formal or general contexts.
