容易产生歧义的英语句子

容易产生歧义的英语句子

容易产生歧义的英语句子英语是一门非常灵活且多义的语言,有时候即使是一句简单的句子也会因为词语的多义性或者语法结构的模糊性而产生歧义。

特别是对于非英语母语者来说,理解这些歧义可能会更加困难。

本文将讨论一些在英语中容易产生歧义的句子,并对它们进行分析和解释。

首先,一些词语的多义性经常会导致句子产生歧义。

比如,“I saw her duck”这句话就有两种解释。

一种是“我看到她躲闪”,另一种是“我看到她的鸭子”。

这里的“duck”既可以指动词“躲闪”,也可以指名词“鸭子”,所以句子的真正含义依赖于上下文。

如果没有上下文的支持,那么读者很难确定句子的确切含义。

另一个常见的例子是“Time flies like an arrow.”这句话听起来似乎很简单,但它的意思可以有多种解释。

一种是“时间像箭一样飞逝”,另一种是“时间飞翔喜欢一个箭”,还有可能是“时间像箭一样喜欢飞逝”。

这一句话之所以产生歧义,主要是因为“like”和“an arrow”可以有不同的修饰对象。

所以,要想完全理解这句话的含义,读者需要依赖于上下文或者其他线索。

不仅是词语的多义性,有时候句子的语法结构也会让人产生误解。

比如,“The old man the boats.”这句话看上去是一个简单的陈述句,但它实际含义可能会有不同的解释。

一种可能的解释是“老人管理这些船”,另一种是“这些船老化了”。

这里的歧义主要来自动词“man”的不同解释。

如果“man”被理解为及物动词,那么这句话的意思是“老人管理船只”,如果“man”被理解为名词,那么这句话的意思是“船只老化了”。

对于非英语母语者来说,这种歧义可能会让他们感到困惑。

此外,有时候句子的语态也会让人产生误解。

比如,“The chicken is ready to eat.”这句话看上去似乎没有什么问题,但它的含义可能会有不同的解释。

一种可能是“鸡准备好了,可以吃了”,另一种是“鸡已经准备好了,可以吃了”。

英语口语中容易犯的失误和误解的句子

英语口语中容易犯的失误和误解的句子

英语口语中容易犯的失误和误解的句子英语中有些句子,乍看起来很简单,但是其中的某些词汇和搭配的可能跟常见的意义相去甚远,这时可千万不能望文生义哦!本文为大家总结了英语口语中容易犯的失误和误解的句子,赶快记下来吧!英语口语中容易犯的失误:1. I very like itI like it very much.2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。

The price is very suitable for me.The price is right.Note:suitable(合适的、相配的)最常见的用法是以否定的形式出现在告示或通知上,如:下列节目儿童不宜。

The following programme is not suitable for children在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。

3. 你是做什么工作的呢?What's your job?Are you working at the moment?Note:what's your job这种说法难道也有毛病吗?是的。

因为如果您的谈话对象刚刚失业,如此直接的问法会让对方有失面子,所以您要问:目前您是在上班吗?Are you wor king at the moment?接下来您才问:目前您在哪儿工作呢?Where are you working thes e days?或者您从事哪个行业呢?What line of work are you in?顺带说一下,回答这类问题时不妨说得具体一点,不要只是说经理或者秘书。

4. 用英语(论坛)怎么说?How to say?How do you say this in English?Note:How to say是在中国最为泛滥成灾的中国式英语之一,这决不是地道的英语说法。

同样的句子有:请问这个词如何拼写?How do you spell that please?请问这个单词怎么读?How do you pronounce this word?5. 明天我有事情要做。

英语短语容易误解的10个句子

英语短语容易误解的10个句子

英语短语容易误解的10个句子英语短语容易误解的10个句子1. Do you have matches?最近我有一次机会登上一艘豪华游轮观光。

我在酒吧台拿了两杯鸡尾酒回房间享受,途中遇到一位女士,她看看我后笑着说:"You have matches?"我一愣,回答说:“很抱歉,我十五年前就戒烟了,所以没有火柴。

”她立刻会意到我误解了她的意思,好像是有点抱歉地说:"It's a joke."然后,除了尴尬就没有然后了。

事后和朋友在吃晚饭的时候聊天,我趁机向一个美国朋友请教白天的那句话,他解释说:“因为她看你两手都占着,就故意开玩笑跟你要火柴,这是个非常普通的笑话,其实是想问你需不需要帮忙。

”2. Turn the table一位亲戚和妻子失和到了要离婚的地步。

几天前接到亲戚电话,说他们在走进律师楼之前,先去求助于心理和婚姻问题专家。

夫妇俩心平气和地坐下来谈了好多次,互相之间多了份理解,少了一份猜疑、埋怨,结果化干戈为玉帛。

说简单也简单,就这么拯救了这场婚姻。

我打心眼里为他们高兴,把这一消息告诉了同样也认识他们的一位美国朋友。

这位朋友很激动,还补了一句:"He turned the table"。

这话让我心里很不舒服,她是指我亲戚动粗吗?直到朋友以另一种方法向我解释,她是说我亲戚“扭转了局面”,那table和我想到的“桌子”根本无关。

turn the tables (on someone) = to suddenly take a positionof strength or advantage that was formerly held by someone else(反败为胜,转弱为强)例句:She played badly in the first set, but then she turned thetables on her opponent and won the match。

容易误解的英语习语

容易误解的英语习语

2.be not fit to hold a candle 远远比不上
be not fit to hold a candle的意思可以追溯到电器发明之前,英国人和中国人一样靠蜡烛照明。工匠晚上做工,会叫学徒给他掌烛;有钱人晚上从酒馆、戏院等回家,也有仆从拿着火把引路。仆从跟主人的身分本来就很悬殊;假如连做仆从给人家掌烛都不配,那么,双方的地位、能耐等一定是相差很远的了。所以现在一般用这个词表示远远比不上。
很容易被翻译成瞎约会或者盲目的约会, blind date其实指的是由第三方安排的男女初次见面,也就是现如今非常流行的相亲。
9.go to bed with the chickens晚上早睡觉
字面意思很搞笑:和小鸡一起上床睡觉~~其实是指晚上早睡觉。因为小鸡总是很早就回窝睡觉啦。
10.confidence man 骗子
13.bank holiday 公共假期
对于英国这样的老牌资本主义国家来说,如果银行停业,当然就意味着所有商业活动也都会停止,人们也就可以不用上班工作。所以国定假日叫bank holiday。 如果遇到某个Bank Holiday正好是周末的时候, 那就在另外一周 (一般是接下来的一周) 里选一天补成Bank Holiday。
12.fourth estate 记者或新闻界
estate 有地产、遗产、地位的意思。不过这里的fourth estate可不是第四笔地产。欧洲传统上认为社会由贵族、教会、平民三大基层构成。近代新闻记者自成一个势力,则是传统三大阶层以外的第四阶层,称为fourth estate,有人把它译为第四权。
3.eleventh hour 最后时刻
eleventh hour并不是表示十一点,而是表示“最后时刻”的意思。这句成语出自圣经的《马太福音》,有个阔人想雇几个人到他的园子里去干活,他从早上五点就开始雇人,雇到最后一个人时已经是夜里很晚了。干完活后付工钱,结果大早上来的和夜里来的都一视同仁地得到了一枚银币,弄的一大早就开始干活的人极为不满,早知如此,还不如夜里十一点钟来呢,因为只要不超过十二点,都能得到同样的报酬,很像中国的“来的早不如来的巧”,从此eleventh hour 就有了挽回局面的关键时刻的含义。如:The war, which seemed certain, was prevented at the eleventh hour. 人们在最后时刻阻止了这场战争。

英语中容易误解的常见陷阱句汇总

英语中容易误解的常见陷阱句汇总

英语中容易误解的常见陷阱句汇总林甸一中房亚春以前听过一个笑话,讲的是有一个人初到一个讲英语的国家,他英语不是太好。

有一天他在屋子里的窗户前站着,听到楼上有人说:look out!然后他就立刻伸出脑袋向外看,结果被一盆水淋到。

听到后学过英语的人都觉得很可笑,look out明明是小心的的意思,却被学不明白的人当成了向外看的意思。

所以闹了这么个笑话。

所以说对于学英语的人来说,我们不能够用汉语的思维来学习英语,否则的话会闹更多的笑话。

因为英语和汉语的思维方式是不一样的。

所以很多我们平时很常用的句子,坚决不能够从字面来理解它的意思。

否则的话会闹更多的笑话。

下面我关于一些常见的容易引起误解的句子进行归纳总结,希望大家能都从中多了解英语的思维方式,不再引起误会。

汉语中我们常说:我认为没有他的帮助,我不可能完成这项任务。

但是写成英语我们就不能写成:I think I couldn’t have finished the task without his help.而我们应该用否定转移的句式写成I don’t think I could have finished the task without his help.另外我举几个例子一.You can find doctors and doctors in Hongkong!很多人认为这句话应该翻译成:在香港,你能看到很多的医生。

那么你就大错特错了,其实这句话的意思是:在香港,既有好医生,也有坏医生。

所以如果我们想说老师有好坏之分,应该说成,There are teachers and teachers.所以以后如果再遇到这样的句子时候,一定要注意千万别翻译错了,不然会引起很大的误会。

二.我们再看一个例子:I am too glad to see you. 我们不能按照常理认为too…to…是太…而不能。

如果这样的话就完全弄反了这句话的意思了。

我们应该翻译成我很高兴见到你,而不是我太高兴了不能看到你。
