常見錯誤

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

×There are too many noises in the city.

There is too much noise in the city.

當泛指環境中的「噪音」時,'noise' 是不可數名詞,使用單數形式。'noises' 通常指具體、可辨識的幾種不同聲音。

×I love the noise of the ocean waves.

I love the sound of the ocean waves.

'sound' 是中性的,指任何聽得到的聲音。'noise' 通常帶有負面含義,指令人不悅、吵雜或干擾的聲音。描述令人愉悅的自然聲音時,應使用 'sound'。

×The kids are doing a lot of noise.

The kids are making a lot of noise.

表達「製造噪音」的固定動詞搭配是 'make noise',而不是 'do noise'。這是常見的動詞搭配錯誤。

×There was a lot of noise about the new policy.

There was a lot of talk / fuss about the new policy.

'noise' 指物理上的聲音。用於比喻「議論、爭議」時,雖然 'make noise about something' 是可能的,但更自然、常見的表達是 'talk', 'fuss', 'discussion' 或 'controversy'。直接使用 'noise' 可能造成誤解。

×That's a very big noise!

That's a very loud noise!

描述聲音的「音量大小」或「響度」,應使用 'loud' 或 'quiet'。'big' 或 'small' 通常用於描述物體的物理尺寸或規模,不用於描述聲音的強度。
