12句中式英语的典型错误（二）

7. 我的舞也跳得不好。 误：I don't dance well too.

正：I am not a very good dancer either.

提示：当我们说不擅长做什么事情的时候，英语里面通常用not good at something，英语的思维甚至直接踊跃到：我不是一个好的舞者。 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.

5

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.

提示：I have no experience这句话听起来古里古怪，因为您只需要说那方面我懂得不多，或者这方面我不在行，就行了。I am not really an expert in this area. 12. ——这个春节你回家吗？ ——是的，我回去。

--Will you be going back home for the Spring Festival? 误：--Of course! 正：--Sure. / Certainly.

提示：以英语为母语的人使用of course的频率要比中国的学生低得多，只有在回答一些众所周知的问题时才说of course。因为of course后面隐含的一句话是“我当然知道啦！难道我是一个傻瓜吗？”因此，of course带有挑衅的意味。在交谈时，用sure或certainly效果会好得多。同时，of course not也具挑衅的意味。正常情况下语气温和的说法是certainly not。
