常見錯誤

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

×His logic is not logic.

His logic is not logical.

「logic」是名詞,指邏輯或推理過程。形容「有邏輯的」或「合乎邏輯的」應使用形容詞「logical」。

×I can't understand the logic of this sentence.

I can't understand the logic behind this sentence.

表達「某事物背後的邏輯」時,通常使用介系詞「behind」或「of」,但「the logic of」有時會顯得模糊。使用「the logic behind」更清楚地指出邏輯是支撐或解釋某事物的基礎。

×According to the logic, we should do it.

By that logic, we should do it.

「According to the logic」不自然,聽起來像在引用一個名為「邏輯」的權威。更自然的說法是「By that logic」或「Following that logic」,意指根據前述的推理過程。

×It is a logic conclusion.

It is a logical conclusion.

修飾名詞(如 conclusion)時,必須使用形容詞「logical」,而非名詞「logic」。這是常見的詞性混淆錯誤。

×The logic of the computer is broken.

The computer's logic circuit is faulty. / The computer's programming has a flaw.

「logic」指抽象的推理原則或思維方式,電腦本身不會「邏輯壞掉」。在談論電腦硬體時,可能指「邏輯電路」;在談論軟體時,則是指「程式邏輯」有缺陷。原句是中文思維的直接翻譯,不自然。
