Enter into、chase after... 錯?
- #enter #INTO an agreement
- He’s always #chasing #AFTER women
明報| 英文 | 毛孟靜

有網上英語教室提出以下的錯與對例句:
Incorrect: We were not allowed to enter into the house.
Correct: We were not allowed to enter the house.
兩句話都是說,我們不准進入屋子。唯一的分別是,說enter 就好,enter into 是錯的。
事實是,enter 本身解作進入,into 也是進入的意思,enter into 似乎就不必要地重疊了。
但這並不等於enter into 永遠是錯的,#英文中確有enter #into 的講法。譬如說:
• The two investors decided to enter into a long term business relationship. 兩名投資者決定進入一段長久的營商關係。
類似的用法有enter into an agreement 合約、協議;以及a discussion 討論、對話。
也即是說,enter into 的講法不但正確,而且頗為普遍,用來表達投入或積極參與、熱衷於某事:it is correct and common when it means to participate in, to take an active role or interest in something.
• The ongoing protests have prompted him to quit banking to enter into politics. 持續的抗爭促使他放棄銀行業,投身政治。
• After a long stand-off, the two sides have finally agreed to enter into negotiations. 經過一段長時間的僵持,雙方終於決定談判。
另一個跟enter into 一樣、會引起類似文首疑問的詞組,是chase after。
大家都可能聽過的說法是,chase 本身已解作追逐,要追,當然是從後面追,所以只應該說I chased him 我追他,而不會說I chased after him 我從後面追他?
答案是,不一定呢,#英文肯定有chase #after 的講法。
• He took off, and I chased him. 他拔腳跑了,我追他。
• He took off more than a minute ago, but I decided to still chase after him. 他超過一分鐘前就拔腳跑了,但我仍然決定去追他。
上面兩句說話最大的分別,是第一句的行動是即時的,而第二句的追逐,就明顯有時間及距離上的分別,因而有「可望而不可即」的場景。
也許就同時解釋了chase after 是指男女關係上的追求。
- He is always chasing after women. 他會追求任何女子。
- Chasing after material possessions seems to be his goal in life. 他的人生目標似乎就是追求擁有物質。
總之要記得,enter into、chase after 都是正確的英文用法。

be allowed to用法 在 台灣空姐姍姍的旅遊和廣東話閒聊 Facebook 的最讚貼文
《英文公告來找碴-1 》
台灣一直很不重視英文公告、標語、說明的正確性,連桃園「國際」機場也是。接下了我會不斷貼出「中文思考、直接逐字翻譯成英文」的例子,並改成正確的並且英文程度更進階的版本,多數來源都會轉自桃園國際機場FB page
前幾天轉貼了桃機針對非洲豬瘟的英文公告(大家請勿帶任何農牧商品入境,請努力檢舉違規者!),其中 epidemic situation 就是直接從中文的「感染情況」翻譯過去。英文用epidemic 一個字,就足以代表「感染情況」,不需要再加 situation 這個字;英文裡沒有 epidemic situation 這樣的搭配用法。google找得到這樣用,但看看資料來源就會知道不是英文母語者
改寫後:
The African Swine Fever epidemic among pigs in several countries has recently become dangerously serious.
Any meat products, animals, and plants are not allowed to be brought into Taiwan.
To avoid the smuggling of the above mentioned, inspection dogs in Taoyuan Airport are on intensive patrol duties.
Arriving passengers must follow the quarantine regulations of importation at all times, or otherwise you will face a maximum fine of 1 million NTD.

[詞彙區別] 同學們,在寫學術文章的時候是不是很難區分thus, therefore, hence?
雖然這幾個字都是副詞,字義上也大致被認為是「所以」,可是用法卻有細膩的區別。
★★★★Thus★★★★
1. Thus 的意思是「以這樣的方式」或「藉由如此」。
“Thus” means “in this/that way.” It relates to “HOW” - the manner in which - how something happens or comes about.
E.g. The university has drastically lowered its tuition, thus (in this way) allowing many more people the chance of higher education.
2. Thus 另外一個意思是「因此」或「於是」。
“Thus” also means as a result of something just mentioned. It, when used as a conjunctive adverb, is similar in meaning to “therefore.”
E.g. It has been discovered that using scents can trigger the sensations of love, comfort, and happiness. Thus, the sense of smell can be used as strategy to invoke new responses in consumers.
3. Thus far 的意思則是「到目前為止 」或「迄今」。
E.g. He has invested $ 12 million thus far. He will most likely invest more in the future.
★★★★Therefore★★★★
1. Therefore的意思是「出於某個原因」、「因為某個因素」或「建立在某個基礎上」。
Therefore 前面的句子提供了證據支持某個結論,而該結論將出現在下一個含有 therefore的句子中。Therefore在數學證明中是常見的。
“Therefore” means “for this reason,” or “because of this or that” - it relates to deductive reasoning, it tells WHY this or that is so, or happened.
E.g. He was late and therefore (for this reason) missed the bus.
E.g. There are frequent rock slides in that area. Therefore, no one is allowed to enter.
★★★★Hence★★★★
1. Hence意思是「 因此」或「 導致」,字義是跟therefore相同,但用法不同。
We suspect that the agency is trying to hide something, hence the need for an independent inquiry.
在這邊hence後面並非連接子句,而是接名詞片語!
2. Hence 在正式(科學)的文章可以當轉折詞,意思仍然是「 因此」。
The cost of transport is a major expense for an industry. Hence(,) factory location is an important consideration.
這邊逗號在正式寫作常省略掉。
★★★★★★★★★★★★
這三個字都有共同點,所以同學自然在使用時容易混淆,而且大部分母語者也分不太清楚這三者間的差異。但是同學在學術寫作時還是必須選擇適當的詞彙,才能精準表達自己的想法及觀點。若用字上不夠明確,很容易誤導讀者而失去原先欲傳遞的訊息。
建議同學還是要分清楚這三字細微的區別才能更精準、有效、流暢地呈現文章的要點間的連貫。
