很多小朋友都會犯Chinglish的錯誤!在日常英語口語中總是帶著漢語的思維,這讓很多歪果仁犯了難。
今天就跟大家分享一些國內(nèi)小朋友一直說的中式英語表達,大家快來看看自己有沒有中招?。‰m然這些表達大部分都能讓歪果仁理解,但是小小的改變,會讓你的英語聽上去不再那么中式,那么low。
1.這位老人靠捕魚為生。
×錯誤:The old man made a living by catching fish.
√正確:The old man made a living by fishing.
2.我擅長畫畫,他擅長閱讀。
×錯誤:I'm good at painting pictures and he's good at reading books.
√正確:I'm good at painting and he's (good at) reading.
3.我國是歷史悠久的大國。
×錯誤:Our country is a great country with a long history.
√正確:Ours is a great country with a long history.
固定搭配使用不當
4.中學以來,他就壯得像一頭牛。
×錯誤:Since junior high school, he is as strong as an ox.
√正確:Since junior high school, he is as strong as a horse.
和我們不一樣,歪果仁常常用馬來形容人身體壯,胃口大(He eats like a horse.)
5. 我的舞也跳得不好。
×錯誤:I don't dance well too.
√正確:I am not a very good dancer either.
6.我沒有經(jīng)驗。
×錯誤:I have no experience.
√正確:I am afraid I don’t know much about that.
7.他的身體很健康。
×錯誤:His body is healthy.
√正確:He is in good health./ He’s healthy.
8.他的課給我們帶來很多快樂。
×錯誤:His classes bring us a lot of happiness.
√正確:His classes make us so happy.
√正確:His classes really brighten us up.
9. 她臉紅了,讓我看穿了她的心思。
×錯誤:Her red face made me see through her mind.
√正確:Her red face told me what she was thinking about.
10.看到這幅畫讓我想到了我的童年時代。
×錯誤:The sight of these pictures made me remember my own childhood.
√正確:The sight of these pictures reminded me of my own childhood.
11. 吸煙有害健康。
×錯誤:Smoking is harmful for your body.
√正確:Smoking is harmful for your health.
12. 我想我不行。
×錯誤:I think I can't.
√正確:I don't think I can.
這一組是個習慣問題,在語法上稱為否定前置,這就是漢語里面說“我想我不會”的時候,英語里面總是說“我不認為我會”。
13. 用英語怎么說?
×錯誤:How to say in English?
√正確:How do you say this in English?
How to say并不是最為地道的英語說法。同樣的句子有:“How do you spell that please?/ How do you pronounce this word。
14. 我很喜歡打籃球。
×錯誤:I very like playing basketball
√正確:I like playing basketball very much.
15. 我沒有英文名。
×錯誤:I haven't English name.
√正確:I don't have an English name.
have是實義動詞,而并不是在現(xiàn)在完成時里面那個沒有意義的助動詞。所以,這句話由肯定句變成否定句要加助動詞。
