常见中国式英语错误及改正30例
中国人常犯的英语错误
中国人常犯的英语错误中国人常犯的英语错误11) 句号后面不空格:接触了点“国内英文”,发现有这个通病。
问了一个朋友才恍然大悟,因为在打中文时,标点符号后面是不用空格的。
但是在太平洋两岸尚未统一之前,劳驾打英文标点时,后面姑且先空一格吧。
2) 喜欢少一点:S.H.E.不是S.H.EU.S. 不是 U.SP.R.C. 不是 P.R.C3) 不该多加了个介词:Seek help, not “seek for help(s)”.楼下那位找人帮忙的别生气。
(Don’t take it pe rsonally.)我每年都替我们公司做campus recruiting。
这个错误是在中国留学生中最普遍的。
看到我这张黄面孔,同胞也最喜欢往我的booth 这里递简历,但是半数的简历开头都写着:seeking for a position that offers…老美是不会往下读第二句的,直接丢进made in China的碎纸机里了。
Seek 后面不要(不应)加for。
因为Seeking = looking for所以Seeking for = looking for for (?)4) 不该少了个介词:Back to China, 或者 back in China,不是back China (“情回中国”网站的英文名。
不过这比我以前看到的那个海军迷的网站叫闹的笑话要小些。
)5) 不该大写的别大写:大写往往是代表缩写。
加复数时,s不要大写。
DINKs (or DINK’s),别写成DINKS。
PhD,不是PHD。
(PHD=Permanent head damage).Again, 楼下那位找帮忙的别生气。
Nothing personal.另外,在网络刚普及的时候,美国有约定的nettiquette (net etiquette,或称网络礼仪),全大写的打字被网民视为大声喧哗(shouting),属无礼行为。
当然我理解中文打字的局限,这条不适用于华人。

中美对照:常见中式英语错误列表x
中美对照:常见中式英语错误列表x中式英语指的是中国学习英语者常见的错误或者习惯用法。
以下是常见的中式英语错误列表:1. 主谓一致错误:汉语中主语和动词的一致性很少被关注,但在英语中是非常重要的。
例如,“He don't want to go”应改为“He doesn't want to go”。
2. 冠词错误:在英语中,冠词使用要根据名词的单复数和可数性进行正确的搭配。
例如,“I want buy a new car”应改为“I want to buy a new car”。
3. 介词错误:汉语中的介词用法与英语有很多差异,常常容易混淆。
例如,“I am in the airport”应改为“I am at the airport”。
4. 词序错误:汉语和英语的语序是不同的,所以在翻译成英语时要特别注意词序的正确性。
例如,“Yesterday I go to the supermarket”应改为“Yesterday I went to the supermarket”。
5. 动词时态错误:汉语中的时态较为简单,而英语中有多种时态,所以容易犯时态错误。
例如,“She is go to school”应改为“She goes to school”。
6. 词汇搭配错误:中式英语中常常使用错误的词汇搭配,造成表达不准确或不通顺。
例如,“I finish my homework”应改为“I complete my homework”。
7. 汉语思维逻辑:汉语的逻辑顺序与英语不同,中国学生有时会按照汉语的思维逻辑来表达,但这在英语中是错误的。
例如,“Because it is raining, so I take an umbrella”应改为“Because it is raining, I take an umbrella”。
8. 大意错误:有时候,我们通过直译的方式表达,而没有注意到一些细微的差别,造成表达的大意错误。
常见中国式英语错误及改正2 doc
常见中国式英语错误及改正(二)第十一词: Afford意思是买的起,付得起、花得起时间、金钱、精力等。
但是Afford只能表示能力,不表示意愿。
例如我们可以说I''m willing to pay, but I really can''t afford it,而不能说I''m willing to afford it。
用好这个词,我们的水平就会提高一个档次,让你的同学打心底里佩服。
我们来看一些例子:1、这顶帽子贵得也太离谱了,我买不起。
Chinglish: This hat is extremely expensive, I can''t buy it.Revision: This hat is so expensive that I can''t afford it.2、这个村子里好多儿童都上不起学。
Chinglish: Lots of kids can''t go to school because they''re poor. (意思表达出来了但是不精练)Revision: Plenty of kids in this village can''t afford to go to school (can''t afford education).3、抱歉,我跟你玩不起。
Chinglish: Sorry, I can''t play with you.Revision: I can''t afford to play ''games'' with you, sorry.这100词到底要写多长时间,我也不知道。
现在工作太忙了,老板要知道我偷偷干别的,还不炒了我,所以我还得慢慢写,I can''t afford to lose my job, because I''m the bread-winner and I have a big family to support.总评:使用频率:★★★造句功能:★★★西方思维:★★★★★第十二词 Deserve这个词字面意思是“值得”、“该受到”,可褒可贬。
英语口语中中国人常犯的30个语病
英语⼝语中中国⼈常犯的30个语病英语⼝语中中国⼈常犯的30个语病英语⼝语中中国⼈常犯的30个语病1. I very like it I 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 followingprogramme is not suitable for children在这组句⼦中⽤后⾯的说法会更合适。

中国常犯的英语口语错误有哪些
中国常犯的英语口语错误有哪些中国常犯的英语口语错误有哪些中国学生的口语存在着一些普遍问题,如发音,口音,流利度欠缺等,很多传说中的中式英语(Chinglish)我们耳熟能详,比如说people mountain people sea,good good study等等,但是依然有很多错误表达是中国学生没有意识到,并且经常犯的错误。
学口语不多揣摩怎么能行呢?1.I very much like David Beckham其实这种说法还是比较普遍的。
Very 虽说是个副词,但是并不能像一般的副词一样,放在副词前面修饰动词,所以very有自己独特的用法。
这句话正确的写法是:I like David Beckham very much.. 但是老外更习惯于说 I am a huge fan of David Beckham; I am insanely crazy about him; I could think of nobody that tops him; 其次,在口语表达中,很多学生习惯于用very good这种表达方式。
这里向各位烤鸭们推荐其它的一些表达,譬如incredible,amazing, unbelievable, impressive,awesome等等。
2. My English is poor很多学生看到这句话,第一反应就是:“这句话还是错的吗?我们老师就是这么教的我们!”其实,在英语表达里面,尤其是口语,单纯的语法正确并不能表明这句话的意思就是对的。
我从来没有听过老外讲过My Chinese is poor. 口语中更加注重的是语言表达习惯。
虽然某句话是对的`,但是没有人这么讲。
老外通常会讲My Chinese sucks; My Chinese is awful. 更多的情况下,老外的表达会比较积极,比如说 I am getting better though..3. Oral English回国后,我听到很多的学生说oral English, 甚至还包括个别的外教。

英语口语交流中常犯的12个典型中国式错误(2)
英语口语交流中常犯的12个典型中国式错误(2)英语口语交流中常犯的12个典型中国式错误8. 现在几点钟了?误:What time is it now?正:What time is it, please?提示:What time is it now是一个直接从汉语翻译过的句子,讲英语的时候没有必要说now,因为您不可能问what time was it yesterday, 或者what time is it tommorow?所以符合英语习惯的说法是:请问现在几点了?还有一种说法是:How are we doing for time?这句话在有时间限制的时候特别合适。
9. 我的英语很糟糕。
误:My English is poor。
正:I am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving。
提示:有人开玩笑说,全中国人最擅长的一句英文是:My English is poor. 外国人遇到自己外语不好的情况,他们会说:I am still having a few problem, but I am getting better。
10. 你愿意参加我们的晚会吗?误:Would you like to join our party on Friday?正:Would you like to come to our party on Friday night?提示:join往往是指参加俱乐部或者协会,如:join a health club; join the Communist Party。
事实上,常常与party搭配的动词是come 或者go。
如go a wild party,或者come to a Christmas Party。
11. 我没有经验。
误:I have no experience。
正:I don't know much about that。

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?错误:What’s your job?正确: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 working at the moment?接下来您才问:目前您在哪儿工作呢?Where are you working these 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. 用英语怎么说?错误:How to say?正确: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。

明白道理就是一两件事,习惯就是另一回事,恳请您再说几话:我没钱;idon'thaveanymoney。
我没兄弟姐妹;idon'thaveanybrothersorsisters。
我没车。
idon'thaveacar。

常见中国式英语错误及改正30例常见中国式英语错误及改正(一)第一词:TRY我们先看几个来自生活中的句子,都是常见句子(注:所谓Chinglish只是相对,并非绝对):1、这蛋糕真好吃,你尝点。
Chinglish:This cake is so delicious, please eat a little.Revision: The cake is so delicious. Please try some.2、这样不行,你再看看。
Chinglish: It won''t do. Please see it again.Revision: It won''t do. Please try again.3、我做过一两次,都失败了。
Chinglish: I did one or two times, but I failed.Revision: I tried a couple of times, but I failed.4、请您放心,我一定有多少力,出多少力。
Chinglish: Please put down your heart. I''ll give all my strength out. Revsion: Don''t worry, I''ll try my best.5、这件裙子真漂亮,你穿上看看?This skirt looks so beautiful. Would you please try it?凡是带有“尝试”、做事没底但是还是做了等,可以选用try一词,简单又实用。
当然,try还有审判的意思。
So, Please try this word more often.在中对try的原形进行搜索,“约有158,000,000项符合try的查询结果”,也就是近1.6亿个结果。
可见try是多么受欢迎。
那么我们用过多少次?总评(五星制):使用频率:★★★★★造句功能:★★★西方思维:★★★第二词 Enjoy这一动词我印象比较深刻,它的用法比较简单,凡是带有“享受到”的意思就可以用。
反义词是suffer (from)。
经典用法是享有。
声誉。
在公司、单位英文介绍里可以说简直是不可或缺的一个词。
如:In Africa, Botswana is one of the few countries which enjoysa good reputation for corruption control and the DCEC has attracted favourable attention from analysts, donors and Botswana''s regional neighbours.顺便再说一句,好的用enjoy,不好的可用suffer。
一想到灾难、甚至阿富汗、伊拉克什么的就应该想到suffer这个词。
这个词就不单独列出来了。
再如:UN conference to study why women in war-torn States suffer justice deficit.总评:使用频率:★★★造句功能:★★★西方思维:★★★第三词 Available这个词有点怪,是形容词,但是一般放到所修饰的词后面。
凡句子中含有是“有。
可以用到”的时候都可以考虑这个词。
这个词关系到我们思维方式,而不是这个词用法有多复杂。
反义词是unavailable.现在都讲究资源了先看几个句子:1、对不起,没座了。
Chinglish: Sorry, we have no seats now.Revision: Sorry, no seats available.2、网站暂时无法访问。
Chinglish: This website can''t be visited temporarily.Revision: Website Temporarily Unavailable.有时候尽管不是非用available/unavailable不可,但是多用一些,看起来正宗。
在中搜索结果:是约有441,000,000项符合available的查询结果,即4亿多条,但是我们用过几次。
他们爱用的我们老不用,难怪正宗度老是大打折扣。
要学习例句,里多得是。
几亿条了可不是?br> 总评:使用频率:★★★★★造句功能:★★★★西方思维:★★★★★第四词 Surprise有人可能会说,这个词有什么了不起?选中这个词,完全就看重这个词包含的一种文化。
西方人注重生活情调,特别看重带给朋友或家人的“惊喜”。
先看几个句子:1、我男朋友来看我了。
真是个惊喜!My boyfriend has come to see me. It''s really a big surprise!2、对于这名老教师来说,真是惊喜连连啊。
To this veteran teacher, it''s one surprise after another.这个词荒延谩W魑耍岣咦约旱纳钊の叮投嗟鉺urprise吧!在中,约有25,100,000项符合surprise的查询结果。
总评:使用频率:★★★造句功能:★★西方思维:★★★★★星沙英语网第五词 Skills首先感谢上面的朋友捧场。
我们一起学习,一起进步。
作“技能、水平”讲。
以前一想到“水平”一词,就会想到level一词,但是老外可不是这么想的。
skills一词,更近。
先看几个句子:1、怎样才能提高我们的英语水平?Chinglish:How to improve our English level? (他们一般不这么说,但是应该可以看懂)Revision :How to improve our English skills?2、他写作、翻译水平很高。
Chinglish:His writing and translating level are very high.Revision:He has very good writing and translation skills.现在追求技术的时代,skills也走俏。
什么English skills, computer skills, study skills, survival skills, writing skills...都泛滥了,我们也"决口"一次如何?总评:使用频率:★★造句功能:★★西方思维:★★★★★第六词 Offer这个词比较微妙。
英译中时不太好处理,正因如此,这个词才值得我们重视。
先看几个句子:1、谢谢你的好意,不过我可以走回去。
Chinglish:Thank you for your goodwill, but I can go home on foot. Revision: Thanks for your offer, but I can walk home.2、全国人民纷纷向灾区伸出了援助之手。
version 1:People from all over the country all giving their hands to the disaster area.Alt Version: People from all over the country are offering helping hands to t he disaster area.3、他给了一件工作给我。
version 1: He gave me a job to do.Better version: He offered me a job.Offer可以做动词用,也可以做名词用。
还有一些固定搭配,其中Job offer非常红。
凡是带有“给予”、“善意提供的(帮忙)”等意思,就可以考虑offer这个词。
我们可以把give一些空间让点给offer。
这个机会可是我最后给你的。
答应不答应随你的便。
This is my last offer to you. Take it or leave it.总评:使用频率:★★★★造句功能:★★★西方思维:★★★★★第七词 Difference意思是差别。
对于difference只需要掌握一到两个短语,我们口语水平就会前进一大步,让你的同学对你刮目相看,那就是make a difference(有很大不同)或make no differences(没什么不同)。
1、你说的什么移动、联通,我看还不一路货色。
You''re talking about Telecom and Unicom. The way I see it, they make no differences at all.2、这种化妆品你用用看,效果绝对不一样。
Chinglish: Please use this kind of cosmetics, the effect is absolutely different. Revision: Please try this sort of cosmetics, i bet it''ll make a big difference.(不好意思,我就是喜欢try这个词)3、上帝啊,再给我一次机会,我不会再这样了。
Chinglish:God, please give me a chance again, I won''t do this again. Revision: God, please grant me another chance, and I''ll make a difference.凡是一样不一样,都可以考虑这2个短语,你用好了,绝对可以make a difference。
另外说一下,受教科书的影响,说不同的时候中国学生习惯be different from这一句型。
但是很多时候differ from这个动词形式更简单,try it, and you''ll make a difference,让你的老师、同学对你刮目相看。
西方人崇尚个人奋斗,追求与他人不一样。
这个词,对于他们来说,太神圣了。
在中,make a difference这一短语搜索结果近600万,我们用过几次了。
所以以后有条件,我们就要make a difference,没有条件时,创建条件也要make a difference。
总评:使用频率:★★★★造句功能:★★西方思维:★★★★★第八词 pointpointless(没意义)一词也算它一伙的。
提到这个词,完全是meaning 一词在作怪。
