常見錯誤

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

×I restarted my computer again.

I restarted my computer.

「restart」本身已包含「再次」的意思,加上「again」會造成語意重複。

×I need to restart it again from the beginning.

I need to restart from the beginning.

「restart」已隱含「從頭開始」的意思,因此「from the beginning」通常是多餘的,除非要特別強調或區分不同的起點。

×Please restart the machine to make it work again.

Please restart the machine.

「restart」的動作目的就是為了讓機器恢復運作,因此「to make it work again」是多餘的說明。

×He restarted to work on the project.

He resumed work on the project. / He started working on the project again.

「restart」通常用於機器、系統、程序或比賽等,對於「工作」這類持續性的活動,更自然的說法是「resume」或「start again」。

×Let's restart our discussion from last point.

Let's resume our discussion from where we left off.

「restart」暗示完全從頭開始。若想從中斷處繼續討論,應使用「resume」。

×I will restart learning English next month.

I will start learning English again next month.

「restart」通常用於中斷後「重新啟動」一個已存在的程序或任務。對於像「學習」這樣的長期活動,且可能已停止很長一段時間,使用「start again」或「pick up again」更為自然。
