英语口语交际的十大陷阱
英语口语交际的十大陷阱,你出坑了吗?今日我给大家带来了英语口语交际的十大陷阱,盼望可以关心到大家,下面我就和大家共享,来观赏一下吧。
英语口语交际的十大陷阱,你出坑了吗
1. 英语怎样说?
错误:How to say? 正确:How do you say this in English? 记住how to say只能作为句子里的一部分,不能够单独消失!
2. 明天我有事儿。
错误:I have something to do tomorrow. 正确:Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow. 明天我有事儿,意思是我很忙。
所以想表达很忙、无法脱身的时候,就直接说吧! Im tied up. Im afraid I cant make it at that time. Id love to, but I cant. I have to stay at home.
3. 我想我并不行。
错误:I think I cant.
正确:I dont think I can.
英语否定前置和汉语的习惯大不相同。
汉语里面说“我想我不会”时,英语里说“我不认为我会”。
4. 舞跳得不好。
错误:I don’t dance well. 正确:I am not a very good dancer. 当说不擅长做什么事情时,英语里面通常用not good at something。
5. 现在是几点了?
错误:What time is it now? 正确:What time is it, please? 其实,讲英语的时候没必要说now,由于不行能问昨天的时间也不行能问刚才的时间。
而且一般现在时已经代表now的意思了。
6. 我没阅历。
错误:I have no experience. 正确:I am I don’t know much about that. I have no experience这句话会让老外听来很惊奇。
只要说:那方面懂得不多,或者我不在行,就行了:I am I don’t know much about that. I am not really an expert in this area.
7. 他的身体很健康。
错误:His body is healthy.
正确:He is in good health. / He’s healthy.
8. 价钱很昂贵或者很廉价。
错误:The price is too expensive/cheap.
正确:The price is too high/ rather low.
9. 当然。
Will you come tomorrow? 应当怎样回答? 错误:Of course! 正确:Sure. / Certainly. 以英语为母语的人用of course的频率比中国的同学低得多,只有在回答一些众所周知的问题时才说of course。
由于of course隐含的一句话是“当然我知道啦!”因此,of course带有挑衅的意味。
在交谈时,用sure或certainly效果会更好。
10. 我觉得右手疼。
错误:I feel very painful in my right hand. 正确:My right hand hurts(aches).” 这是一句直译的地道中式英语。
避开此类错误的法宝就是三多一少:多听、多读、多看、少“创作”!
