用法說明
How is "Organize" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Organize"?
organize doing vs organize to do
- organize doing 通常指組織一個具體的活動或事件本身，強調「組織」這個動作的對象是某個活動。
- organize to do 則常表示「為了做某事而進行組織/安排」，強調組織的目的是為了達成後面的動作。
- 在美式英語中，兩者有時可互換，但細微差別在於 organize doing 更偏向活動名稱，而 organize to do 更偏向目的性。
- 被動語態中，如「A meeting was organized to discuss...」，通常使用 to do 來表達會議的目的。 EN: They are organizing holding a charity concert next month. 翻譯: 他們正在組織下個月舉辦一場慈善音樂會。
EN:We need to organize to meet the deadline efficiently.
翻譯:我們需要組織起來，以便有效地趕上截止日期。

正式書寫注意：在正式報告或學術寫作中，應避免上述口語用法。請使用更精確、結構完整的句子來表達「組織」的動作，例如直接說明具體的組織方法或步驟，而非將其作為填充詞或帶有強烈口語語氣的引述。

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Organize"?Which "Organize" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×I organized to meet my friends.
✓I organized a meeting with my friends.
"Organize" is typically followed by a noun (the thing being arranged), not an infinitive verb phrase. Use a noun phrase after "organize".
×He is organizing us to clean the park.
✓He is organizing a park clean-up for us. / He is organizing us to clean the park.
While "organize someone to do something" is possible, it's less common and can sound awkward. It's more natural to use "organize + [event/activity]" or "organize + [group of people] + for + [purpose]".
×My thoughts are not very organized.
✓My thoughts are not very organized.
This sentence is grammatically correct. The common mistake is confusing the verb "organize" with the adjective "organized". Learners sometimes incorrectly use the base form "organize" as an adjective. Remember: "organized" is the correct adjective form.
×We should organize a plan for the project.
✓We should make/formulate a plan for the project.
While not grammatically wrong, "organize a plan" is an unnatural collocation. Native speakers typically "make", "create", or "formulate" a plan. "Organize" is better used with tangible items, events, or systems (e.g., organize data, organize a conference, organize a team).
×I will organize my friend to help you.
✓I will ask/get my friend to help you. / I will arrange for my friend to help you.
"Organize" is not typically used for simple, personal arrangements between individuals. Use "ask", "get", or "arrange for" instead. "Organize" implies a more formal or complex coordination.
