中文學習者容易犯的錯誤

1. 錯誤 : "A car inserted in front of me, I had no time to react and crashed."
   正確 : "A car cut in front of me, I had no time to react and crashed."
   解釋：英文中不會用"inserted"來形容車輛插隊，而是使用"cut in front"或"cut off"。

2. 錯誤 : "I crashed him because he suddenly came to my front."
   正確 : "I crashed into him because he suddenly pulled in front of me."
   解釋：英文中使用"crash into"而非單純的"crash him"，且描述插隊行為要用"pulled in front"。

3. 錯誤 : "I no time to stop and make car accident."
   正確 : "I didn't have time to stop and got into an accident."
   解釋：英文需要正確的時態和動詞結構，"no time"應為"didn't have time"，"make accident"應為"got into an accident"。
