英文錯誤常見原因

母語干擾

母語（如中文、日文）的語法與用詞往往直接影響英語表達。常見的情況包含：中文語序直接搬用至英文句構、用母語邏輯直譯。

直譯文化

直譯習慣容易導致語法與用法錯亂。例如將「你從哪裡來」說成“Where are you come from?”，因直接借用了原有語言架構。

外國人英文經典10大錯誤與正確用法

以下表格統整10大外國人英語常犯錯誤，對應錯誤句、正確說法與備註：

#	錯誤句子	正確說法	備註說明
1	I’m boring.	I’m bored.	分詞用法混淆
2	Where are you come from?	Where are you from? / Where do you come from?	be動詞與助動詞重複
3	I very like you.	I really like you. / I like you very much.	very 無法修飾動詞
4	The rain is big.	The rain is heavy. / It’s raining heavily.	big不形容雨量
5	My job is teacher.	I am a teacher.	用be動詞介紹身分
6	Please repeat again.	Could you repeat that? / Could you say that again?	repeat與again重複
7	Open the light.	Turn on the light.	open不形容電器
8	My computer is broken.	My computer doesn’t work./ My computer crashed.	broken偏表示物理損壞
9	Exercising is funny.	Exercising is fun.	funny=好笑，fun=有趣
10	Cost down.	Lower costs. / Reduce costs.	cost down為中式說法

錯誤解析與正確用法詳解

分詞誤用：bored與boring

“I’m boring”錯將現在分詞boring用於自我感受，應用bored。

正確表達：I’m bored. / This movie is boring.

形容人感受(ed)	形容事物特質(ing)
interested	interesting
excited	exciting
tired	tiring

問句結構混亂

“Where are you come from?” 屬於be動詞和一般動詞混用，其實正確為：“Where are you from?” 或 “Where do you come from?”，不能重複。

修飾語誤用：very like you

very無法修飾動詞like，正用法：I really like you. / I like you very much.

用詞直譯：The rain is big.

應改用：The rain is heavy. / It’s raining heavily. 「big」僅指物理尺寸，「heavy」才能配合描述雨勢。

職場溝通常見錯誤與正解

自我介紹誤區

My job is teacher.」錯將job直接等同於身分。 正用法：I am a teacher. / I work as a teacher.

電腦設備異常

My computer is broken.多指物理毀壞，如僅當機則用：My computer crashed. / doesn’t work.

中文	外國人常說	正確英文說法
電腦壞了	My computer is broken.	My computer crashed / doesn’t work.

會議溝通：

“Please repeat again.”為重複表達，改說：Could you please repeat that? 或：Could you say that again?

流行語與專業術語誤用

PPT並非“slides”

亞洲流行的PPT其實正確英文應為slide(s)。

Cost down的正確替換

中文意義	錯誤說法	正確用法
降低成本	Cost down	Lower costs / Reduce costs

funny vs. fun

Exercising is funny意思是運動很搞笑，應用“Exercising is fun（很有趣）”。

快檢清單：你也犯過這些錯嗎？

檢查點	你曾經說過嗎？	應修正為
I’m boring.	是/否	I’m bored.
Where are you come from?	是/否	Where are you from?
I very like you.	是/否	I really like you.
My computer is broken.	是/否	My computer crashed.
Exercising is funny.	是/否	Exercising is fun.

被母語干擾導致英文錯誤是正常過程，只要能意識、糾正並多練習，英語自然越來越標準。

積極向母語者與專業老師學習，你也能成為英語流利、表達精確的國際溝通好手！
