英语学习:纠正中国是英语,学会正确英语表达中国式英语是中国人的英语学习的内伤,也是让外国人抓狂的英语表达,本文收录了三则中国人极易犯错的英语表达,赶紧学起来吧!

1.你愿意参加我们周五的晚会吗?

易错句型:

Would you like to join our party on Friday?

错误分析:

join作为及物动词时.它的意思是“参加”,但它往往是指参加俱乐部或协会,进而成为其中的一员,从时间概念上来看,更为长远些。例如:

参军

join the army

约翰参加了一个健身俱乐部。

John joined a health club.

王先生加入了中国共产党。

Mr. Wang joined the Communist Party of China.

事实上,常常与Ply搭配的动词是。om。或者是go,如go a wild Party"(参加一个野外聚会).或者come to a christmas party(参加一个圣诞晚会)。

地道英语说法:

Would you like to come to our party on Friday night?

应用对话:

A:没完没了的工作都快把我逼疯了!

A: I'm almost driven crazy by the endless task!

B:你真是应该休假了。你愿意参加我们周五晚上的晚会吗?

B: You really need a vacation. Would you like to come to our party on Friday night?

A:我非常想去,但是我手头的工作的确很重要啊。

A:1 eagerly want to go but my task at hand is very important.

B:别犹豫了,去放松一下吧。有一句话叫“磨刀不误砍柴工”嘛。

B: Don't hesitate any more. Go and have a rest I There is a saying "A beard well lathered is half shaved."

A:我想你说的没错,因为“欲速则不达,,,我决定和你们一起去高兴高兴。

A:I think you are right. More haste,less speed. I decide to have a ball together with you.

B:那就周五晚L见了。

B:Then see you at Friday night.

A:到时见。

A: see you.

注释:

①drive somebody crazy是固定搭配,意思是:把某人逼疯。

②eagerly to do something表示:非常热切地想要做某事。

③A beard well lathered is half shaved.是一句谚语,直译是:把胡

须先用肥皂软化好,就等于“完成了剃须工作的一半了。可以对应翻译

成中文的“磨刀不误砍柴工,’o

④More haste,less speed也是一句谚语,表示:欲速则不达。

) have a ball是常用美语,表示:玩得高兴、过得愉快。

2.这个价格对我挺合适的。

易错句型:

the price is very suitable for me.

suitable意为“合适的、相配的”,通常是指与某人的意图、身份相符,或与某人所处的环境相符,可以以否定的形式出现在告示或通知上。例如:

下列节目儿童不宜。

the following program is not suitable for children.

这房子不太适合大家庭居住。

the house is not really suitable for a large family.

地道英语说法:

the price is right.

应用对话:

a:妈妈,快来.这个戒指真漂亮。

a:mom,come on. here is a very beautiful ring.

b:还不错。多少钱?

b: it looks good. how much?

a:才1000美)元。这价格对我挺合适的。

a:it's only $1000. the price is right for me.

b:我可不这么认为。宝贝儿,你的工资可不高哇。

b:i don't think so. honey,your salary is not very high,isn't it?

a:我知道,我知道,可是我喜欢呀。

a:i know. i know. but i like it.

b:好吧,你自己拿主意吧。

b:ok,it's up to you.

注释:

it's up to you!是“由你决定!”的意思,用在对对方十分信任的场合下。

3.我们要努力把中国建设成为社会主义现代化强国。

易错句型:

We will build China into a socialist modem powerful country.

错误分析:

无论是在英语中,还是在汉语中,形容词都是不可或缺的。英语中,几个形容词同时做定语时应当遵行“靠近”原则,即越能说明被修饰词本质属性的越靠近该词。当一个词的几个修饰词所表达的属性很难区别先后时,就依靠词的长短来决定,短的在前,长的在后。此句中,最能说明“中国”性质的定语是“社会主义的”,因此,socialist应最靠近被修饰词。

地道英语说法:

We will build China into a modem powerful socialist country.

应用对话:

A:中国近年来的经济发展得牙良决,市场经济很繁荣。

A: In recent years, China develops greatly,and the market economy in China is very prosperous.

B:说得不错。这都是改革开放政策执行以来取布导的可喜成果。

B:Aright. We have made spectacular achievements since the carrying out of the policy of the reform and opening up.

A:这对于一个发展中国家而言,这些变化真是令人瞩目。

A: As a developing country, China's changes are remarkable.

B:通过改革开放,我国加强了与世界其他国家的联系,此外,在政治、文化、教育等领域,我国也与其他国家开展了广泛的合作与交流。

B:Reform and opening up makes us strengthen the connection with other countries. Moreover,we widely cooperate and communicate with those countries in many fields such as politics, culture,education, etc

A:我国有很多商人都想到中国来投资。

A: In my country, there are many businessman who expect to invest in China.
