I very like coffee. ❌ He very wants to go. ❌ She very enjoys singing. ❌
中文「我很喜歡、我很想、她很愛」——「很」直接放動詞前。英文照翻 = 全錯。
為什麼是 Taiwanese 特有錯誤
中文「很 + 動詞」完全合法。**但英文 very 不能修飾動詞**——它只能修飾:
- 形容詞(very good, very tired)
- 副詞(very quickly, very carefully)
修飾動詞要用別的字。

| ❌ Wrong | ✅ Correct | |---------|-----------| | I very enjoy IELTS classes. | I really enjoy IELTS classes. | | She very likes her new job. | She really likes her new job. 或 She likes her new job very much. | | We very appreciate your help. | We really appreciate your help. 或 We appreciate your help enormously. | | He very agrees with the plan. | He strongly agrees with the plan. | | They very miss their family. | They miss their family very much. 或 They really miss their family. |
注意「very much」的位置
very much 修飾動詞時要放後面:
- ✅ I like it very much.
- ❌ I very much like it. (文學體可以,日常不自然)
- ❌ I like very much it.
延伸:其他副詞位置規則
頻率副詞 (always, usually, often, sometimes, never)
放 be 動詞後、一般動詞前:
- ✅ She is always late. (be 動詞後)
- ✅ He often goes swimming. (一般動詞前)
- ❌ She always is late.
- ❌ He goes often swimming.
方式副詞 (carefully, quickly, slowly)
通常放句尾或動詞後:
- ✅ She drives carefully.
- ✅ He opened the door quickly.
強度副詞修飾形容詞——放形容詞前
- ✅ She is very tired.
- ✅ He is extremely busy.
- ❌ She tired very.
