使用 "slice" 表示將某物切成片時，通常搭配介系詞 "into" 來表示切成的結果或形狀，而不是 "in"。
×He sliced the knife through the rope.
✓He sliced through the rope with a knife.
動詞 "slice" 本身已包含「用鋒利物切割」的動作，主詞應是執行切割動作的人或物（如刀鋒），而不是工具。正確用法是 "slice through something (with a tool)"。
×Please slice me some breads.
✓Please slice me some bread.
"Bread" 是不可數名詞，沒有複數形式 "breads"。要表示多片麵包，應使用 "slices of bread" 或直接使用不可數形式的 "bread"。
×I will slice the apple. (當意思是想把蘋果切成小塊時)
✓I will chop/dice/cut up the apple.
"Slice" 特指將物體切成薄片或片狀。若要切成小塊、丁狀或隨意切碎，應使用 "chop", "dice", 或 "cut up"。誤用 "slice" 會導致意思不精確。
×The ball sliced to the left.
✓The ball sliced (off) to the left.
在運動（如高爾夫球、網球）中，"slice" 作為動詞描述球帶側旋的曲線飛行路徑時，是不及物動詞，常與 "off (to)" 或方向副詞連用，以描述其偏轉方向。單獨使用 "sliced" 而不加方向詞會使意思不完整。
