2017年02月16日 英国大使馆文化教育处


介词是非常常见的短小单词比如like, atforinon  to。通常位于名词或代词前面,表达与另外一个词之间的关系。



举个栗子


介词:

Thida works

at

the market.

This coffee’s

for

Luca!

Alejandro lives

in

Peru.

Agnieszka’s

on

the bus.

Mika’s listening

to

J-pop again.

英语为母语的人很少在介词使用中犯错,但是英语学习者却总在介词使用上栽跟头。这是因为我们也许更多地是从自己的母语中直译,而不是认真聆听并学习地道的说法。

小编能想到的最好的正确使用介词的练习方法是:


· 尽可能的多听英语口语

· 自我测试常用的介词使用


下面举例告诉大家常犯的介词错误都有哪些,请大家对号入座,积极改正哦!
