常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Team"?Which "Team" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×We teamed together to finish the project.
✓We teamed up to finish the project.
作為動詞時，'team' 通常需要與介系詞 'up' 連用，表示「組隊、合作」。單獨使用 'team' 作動詞時，後面通常接 'with' 或直接接受詞（如：team with someone）。
×I will team you for the competition.
✓I will team up with you for the competition.
動詞 'team' 在表示「與某人組隊」時，必須使用 'team up with someone' 的結構。不能直接將人稱代名詞放在 'team' 後面作為直接受詞。
×They are teaming to solve the problem.
✓They are teaming up to solve the problem.
在進行式或任何時態中，動詞 'team' 表示「合作」時，幾乎總是與 'up' 連用。省略 'up' 會使句子聽起來不自然或不完整。
×We need to team our efforts.
✓We need to combine our efforts. / We need to pool our efforts.
動詞 'team' 的對象通常是「人」或「組織」，而不是抽象的「努力」、「資源」等。表達整合資源或努力時，應使用 'combine'、'pool' 或 'join forces'。
×She teamed the project with her colleague.
✓She worked on the project with her colleague. / She collaborated with her colleague on the project.
動詞 'team (up)' 強調的是「形成一個團隊或夥伴關係」的動作，而不是「在某個專案上一起工作」的持續狀態。後者更常用 'work with'、'collaborate with' 或 'partner with'。
