用法說明
How is "Medical" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Medical"?
medical 與 medical to 的用法
- medical + 名詞 是最常見的用法，表示「醫學的；醫療的」，直接修飾後面的名詞。
- medical to + 動詞原形 的結構並不正確，因為
medical是形容詞，不能直接接不定詞to do。 - 若要表達「為了醫療目的而做某事」，通常會使用其他結構，例如
for medical reasons或medically。 - 在正式或學術寫作中，
medical也常用於複合名詞，如medical history（病歷）、medical advice（醫囑）。 EN: She sought medical attention immediately after the accident. 翻譯: 事故發生後，她立即尋求了醫療協助。
EN:He left the job for medical reasons.
翻譯:他因健康原因離職了。
總結建議
使用 medical 時，應將其視為標準形容詞，其後直接接名詞，避免接不定詞 to do。
