Hello everyone, and welcome back to English with Lucy.

大家好，歡迎再次收看「跟著露西學英文」。

to 不定詞

Today, I'm going to talk you through the five

動名詞

words and phrases that you need to stop saying immediately.

你需要立即停止這麼說的單詞和片語。

Before we get started, I would just like to thank

the sponsor of today's video, it is italki.

今天影片的贊助商，它是 italki。

it's a huge online database of both native

它是一個由母語和非母語人士組成的龐大的線上資料庫

and non-native speakers who give one-to-one

提供 24 小時線上一對一影片教學

你可以從世界上任何角落學習英語

as long as you have a stable Internet connection.

It's an incredibly affordable way of learning a language,

這是一個經濟又實惠學習語言的方案

I have so many people message me each day

They've given me an offer to pass onto you,

好的，讓我們開始今天的課程。

The Words and Phrases You Must Never Say.

「你絕對不能說的單詞和片語」。

But honestly, if you do want to sound like a native speaker,

說實話，如果你真的想把英語說得接近母語人士

or even sound like a very accomplished English student,

甚或是像一個很有造詣的英語學習者

you should avoid saying these words and phrases.

你就應該避免說這些單詞和片語。

I immediately think they're at a lower level.

我會立刻認為他們的英語程度不是很好。

The first phrase that you must never say is,

Of course, I answer it, because I love talking about Italy,

當然，我會回答，因為我喜歡聊義大利

but it shouldn't be in, it's the wrong preposition.

但是在這裡不應該用 in，這個介係詞是錯的。

you want to know if I've ever visited or travelled to

Italy, or Istanbul, or wherever it may be,

義大利，伊斯坦堡，或者其他任何地方

但是，我們不說 in，我們說 to。

Have you ever been to Italy? (正確的說法)

Have you ever been to Istanbul? (正確的說法)

Number two, this is another comment I get a lot on Instagram

第二個，這是另一個我在 Instagram 收到很多的留言

especially when I upload photos with my boyfriend.

特別是當我上傳我和男友合照的時候。

不該用 to，那似乎有點太正經八百了

但是我們卻用 I am married to my husband.

If we're using with, I'm married with my husband,

如果我們用 with，I'm married with my husband

that sounds like I am in a marriage with some children.

聽起來好像是說我和小孩子結婚。

However, with in this case, means and also have.

但是，with 在這個句子裡，還有「有」的意思。

I've been learning English since two years.

I've been learning English since two years. (我學英語已經兩年了)

如果你對英語母語人士這樣說，別擔心

They'll understand what you're trying to say,

It should be since a fixed point in time,

在 since 後面應該接一個明確的時間點

so I've been learning English since 2016.

I've been learning English since 2016. (我從 2016 年開始學英語)

如果講的是一段期間，就應該用 for。

I have been learning English for two years, since 2016.

I have been learning English for two years, since 2016.  (我學英語已經兩年了，從 2016 年開始)

Another common mistake we can add on to that is during.

另一個常見的錯誤是用  during。

我知道在某些語言，像是西班牙語

I wouldn't say I've been learning English during two years,

我們不會說  I've been learning English during two years

Talking about for, let's move on to number four.

說到 for (與 four 諧音)，讓我們繼續講第四個。

Right, it actually makes me sad to talk about this one,

沒錯，現在要討論的讓我感覺有點悲情

因為我覺得它實在是親切又可愛。

But students will often address me as Teacher Lucy,

學生經常稱呼我為「露西老師」

像是「嗨，露西老師，妳好嗎？」
