我很喜歡我們的英文老師會在課堂上讓我們造句，然後再大家一起檢討句子，因為我們常常犯兩種錯誤
1. 造出來的英文句子都是用中文的架構或中文的想法寫的，就會變成"Chinglish"
2. 句子的邏輯不通順，這裡有一個錯誤的例子：
A dog mess a corridor with innocent eye.
同學原本是想說"狗狗把走廊弄亂了卻表露著天真無邪的眼神"，但英文上這句其實是"狗狗用天真的眼睛弄亂了走廊"，這就是邏輯上的不對
以下是最近上課的句子整理：
1. Did you evaluate your ability before studying at ITI? 用ability是"Chinglish"
正確為→Did you evaluate your English level before studying at ITI?
2. I went to several pharmacy to gather some alcohol and sanitizer. 外國人一般說alcohol都是指"可以喝的酒"，而不是酒精，如果要說擦拭用的消毒酒精，用rubbing alcohol
正確為→I went to several pharmacies to gather some rubbing alcohol and sanitizer.
3. I need to find a substitution for dinner. 這句英文直譯其實是"我找不到食物可以吃了，我會找其他的替代品（例如：樹不、花朵等）來當晚餐吃
正確為→We need to find a substituation for our dinner plasns tonight. The restaurant is closed. 我們要為今天的晚餐找其他替代的餐廳，因為原本預計要去的餐廳今天沒開。改成用we是因為"通常"去餐廳吃晚餐都是至少兩個人起，這樣寫比較符合邏輯。
4. Because we are a strat-up company without much brand recognition, we need to run many advertising campaigns to raise our brand awareness.
正確為→Because we are a strat-up company without much brand recognition, we need to run many advertising campaigns to increase our brand awareness.
老師說這個句子用increase比較好，雖然沒有文法錯誤，但他們習慣這樣用
5. Before launching a product, we should conduct market research about the customer preference.
正確為→Before launching a product, we should conduct market research about consumer preferences.
Customer是"舊有的"顧客，做問券應該是針對一般的消費者而不是只侷限＂顧客＂，消費者的喜好是複數。
6. I am delegated by my boss to display our cutting-edge product on exhibition.
正確為→I was delegated by my boss the demo/demonstrate our cutting-edge product on exhibion.
展示商品要用domo，不是用display
7. If you can't attend our wedding, I'll delete your name from the visitor's book.
正確為→If you can't attend our wedding, I'll delete your name from the list of attendees.
Visitor's book是當天才寫的吧，所以應該是把你從來賓名單上刪除
