中英之鑒 中式英語之鑒325

[誤] School is a palace where students learn knowledge.

[正] School is a palace where students acquire/attain knowledge.

注：learn 后一般只接具體的學(xué)習(xí)內(nèi)容，如 learn English(學(xué)英語)，learn to play basketball(學(xué)打籃球)等。但寬泛的“學(xué)知識”不能用 learn，而應(yīng)用 acquire/obtain knowledge，因為那才是地道的表達。

參考例句：Less formally educated people can acquire professional competence 接受比較非正規(guī)教育的人可以學(xué)習(xí)專業(yè)技能
