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習內(nèi)容，如 learn English(學英語)，learn to play basketball(學打籃球)等。但寬泛的“學知識”不能用 learn，而應用 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)教育的人可以學習專業(yè)技能
