用法說明

How is "Same" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Same"?

the same as vs the same with

  • the same as 是最標準且最常見的用法,用於比較兩個事物完全相同。
  • the same with 在某些非正式口語中可能出現,但被視為不標準或不正確,應避免在正式寫作中使用。
  • 在比較級結構中,如 the same...as...,只能用 as 來引導子句。
  • 當表示「與...情況相同」時,正式用法是 the same is true of...it is the same for...,而非 with。 EN: Your phone is the same as mine. 翻譯: 你的手機和我的一樣。

EN:She works in the same company as I do.

翻譯:她和我在同一家公司工作。

總結建議

在所有的比較情境中,統一使用 the same as 是正確且安全的選擇。

常見錯誤

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

×We have same hobby.

We have the same hobby.

在英文中,'same' 作為形容詞使用時,前面通常需要加上定冠詞 'the' 或指示代詞(如 this, that)。

×My answer is same with yours.

My answer is the same as yours.

表達『與...相同』的正確介系詞是 'as',而不是 'with'。固定搭配為 'the same as...'。

×They are in the same level.

They are at the same level.

描述『處於同一水平、等級或階段』時,正確的介系詞是 'at',而不是 'in'。

×It's same.

It's the same.

在口語中單獨使用 'same' 來回應時,前面也必須加上 'the',這是固定用法。

×We study the same subject together.

We study the same subject.

『the same』已經包含了『一起、共同』的含義,再加上 'together' 會造成語意重複。若想強調『一起』,可以說 'We study the same subject and are in the same class.'。

×I feel the same like you.

I feel the same as you.

在比較句型中,'the same' 後面應接 'as',而不是 'like'。'Like' 常用於簡單的比較(如 He looks like his father.),但與 'the same' 搭配時必須用 'as'。
