用法說明
How is "Monday" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Monday"?
on Monday vs. Monday
- on Monday 是標準的介系詞片語，用於表示事件發生的具體時間點，意為「在星期一」。
- 在非正式口語或美式英語中，有時會省略介系詞 on，直接用 Monday 開頭來表示時間，例如："Monday, I have a meeting."
- 在正式書寫或英式英語中，通常會保留 on 以確保語法的正確性。
- 當 Monday 前面有 this, next, last, every 等詞時，則不加 on，例如："I'll see you next Monday."
對比例句： EN: The report is due on Monday. 翻譯: 報告的截止日期是星期一。
EN:Monday is usually our busiest day.
翻譯:星期一是我們通常最忙的一天。
總結建議

正式寫作注意：在正式書面語（如報告、論文、正式信件）中，應避免上述口語用法。提及星期一時，應直接、明確地寫出日期或完整表達，例如「會議訂於下星期一（3月10日）舉行」，而非使用引述或填充語氣的口語形式。

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Monday"?Which "Monday" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×I have meeting on Monday.
✓I have a meeting on Monday.
在英文中，談論單一、非特定的事件時，通常需要在可數名詞前加上冠詞（a/an）。"meeting" 是可數名詞，所以需要 "a meeting" 或 "the meeting"。
×I will see you at Monday.
✓I will see you on Monday.
在英文中，談論星期幾時，固定使用介系詞 "on"，而不是 "at" 或 "in"。
×I go to the gym on Mondays.
✓I go to the gym on Mondays.
這個句子本身是正確的。常見錯誤是誤以為 "Mondays" 是錯的。當表示習慣性、每週重複發生在星期一的活動時，使用複數形式 "Mondays" 是正確的。如果特指下週一或某個特定的星期一，則用單數 "Monday"。
×I'll finish the report by monday.
✓I'll finish the report by Monday.
在英文中，星期幾（Monday, Tuesday...）和月份名稱都必須大寫，這是固定的文法規則。
×See you next Monday! (Spoken on Tuesday, referring to the coming Monday in 6 days)
✓See you Monday! or See you next Monday! (Clarify context is needed)
"next Monday" 的含義可能因地區或語境而異。為避免混淆，在接近週末時提及，可以說 "this coming Monday" 或直接說 "Monday" 並加上日期。最清楚的說法是提供具體日期。
