"Wrong"是英语中最常用的单词之一,今天我们就来看一下这个貌似简单的词语的四种不同用法。
"Wrong"可以用作形容词,表示错误的、不对的:
'That is the wrong shoe, it doesn't match the other one.' (那只鞋不对,它和另外一只不匹配。)
或用作副词,表示错误地:
'What am I doing wrong?' (我做错了什么?)
'Wrong' 还可以用作名词,表示错事:
'He has done a great wrong by leaving the club before the end of the season.' (他在赛季结束前就离开俱乐部是大错特错了。)
以及动词“道歉”:
'He wronged me, now he has apologised and I have accepted the apology.' (他错怪我了,现在他已经道歉,我也接受了他的道歉。)
