用法說明
How is "Optimistic" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Optimistic"?
optimistic about doing vs optimistic to do
- optimistic about doing 是最常見且正確的用法，表示「對做某事感到樂觀」。介系詞
about後面接名詞或動名詞 (V-ing)。 - optimistic to do 在標準文法中並不正確。形容詞
optimistic不直接接不定詞 (to + V) 來表示對未來動作的樂觀。 - 若要表達「樂觀地認為某事會發生」，應使用
optimistic that子句或optimistic about結構。 - 有時在非正式口語中可能聽到
optimistic to do，但這被視為文法錯誤，應避免在正式寫作中使用。 EN: We are optimistic about completing the project on schedule. 翻譯: 我們對於能按時完成這個專案感到樂觀。
EN:We are optimistic that we will complete the project on schedule.
翻譯:我們樂觀地認為我們將能按時完成這個專案。
總結建議
表達「對做某事樂觀」時，請統一使用 optimistic about + V-ing/N 或 optimistic that + 子句 的結構。
