常見錯誤

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

×I will see you on tomorrow.

I will see you tomorrow.

「tomorrow」本身是時間副詞,前面不需要介系詞「on」。就像「today」、「yesterday」一樣,直接使用即可。

×I will go there tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock.

I will go there at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning.

在英文中,表達具體時間點時,順序通常是「具體時間點 + 較大的時間單位」。因此「at 9 o'clock」應放在「tomorrow morning」之前。

×We have a test the tomorrow.

We have a test tomorrow.

「tomorrow」前面不需要定冠詞「the」。它是特定的時間副詞,本身已具備明確的指涉,加上「the」是多餘且錯誤的。

×I am busy on tomorrows.

I am busy on future days / I am usually busy on weekdays.

「tomorrow」的複數形「tomorrows」極少使用,通常用於文學或哲學語境(如「all our tomorrows」意指未來)。表達「未來的日子」或「通常的明天」應使用其他說法。

×See you next tomorrow.

See you tomorrow. / See you the day after tomorrow.

英文中沒有「next tomorrow」的說法。要表達「明天」直接用「tomorrow」;要表達「後天」則用「the day after tomorrow」。

×Tomorrow will have rain.

It will rain tomorrow. / There will be rain tomorrow.

中文常說「明天有雨」,但英文不能將「tomorrow」作為主詞並搭配「have」來描述天氣。正確的句型是「It will... tomorrow」或「There will be... tomorrow」。
