static 與 stationary 的區別
- static 主要強調「靜止不動」的狀態，尤其指物理上沒有移動或變化，常用於科學或技術領域。
- stationary 則更常指「位置固定、不移動的」，描述物體沒有改變其所在位置。
- 在描述物體時，static 強調的是缺乏運動或活動，而 stationary 強調的是停留在一個地點。
對比例句： EN: The car remained static on the icy road, its wheels spinning without traction. 翻譯: 車子在結冰的路面上靜止不動，輪子空轉沒有抓地力。
EN:The delivery van was stationary at the curb for over an hour.
翻譯:那輛送貨車在路邊停了一個多小時。
總結建議
在一般描述固定不動的物體時，使用 stationary；若強調完全無運動或變化的狀態，特別在科技語境中，則使用 static。

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Static"?Which "Static" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×The static of the radio is annoying.
✓The static noise from the radio is annoying.
「static」作為形容詞，意為「靜態的、靜止的」。當想表達「靜電干擾、雜訊」時，應使用名詞「static」。但在這個句子中，使用「static noise」更為清晰自然，直接點明是「靜態雜訊」。
×The car remained static at the traffic light.
✓The car remained stationary at the traffic light.
「static」強調完全沒有運動或變化，常用於抽象概念或狀態（如數據、情況）。描述物理物體「靜止不動」時，更常用「stationary」。
×We need a static environment for the experiment.
✓We need a stable environment for the experiment.
「static」意為「完全靜止、無變化」，可能帶有負面含義（如停滯）。「stable」意為「穩定、牢固」，指在變動中保持平衡，通常為正面含義。實驗需要的是「穩定」環境，而非「完全無變化」的環境。
×The data is static changing.
✓The data is static, not changing.
「static」本身已包含「不變的、靜止的」意思，不應與表示變化的動詞（如 changing, moving, developing）並用。應使用並列結構或從句來對比說明。
×The image held static on the monitor.
✓The image held statically on the monitor. / The image remained static on the monitor.
「static」是形容詞，不能當副詞使用。修飾動詞時，應使用副詞「statically」，或改用動詞（如 remained）搭配形容詞「static」。
×The pond water is static and smells bad.
✓The pond water is stagnant and smells bad.
「static」描述缺乏運動或變化。「stagnant」特指液體因不流動而腐壞、發臭，或用於比喻經濟、思想等停滯不前。描述發臭的池水，應用「stagnant」。
