常见错误

❌ 错误:I feel chilly because I have a cold.
✓ 正确:I feel chilly because the temperature is low.

错误用法混淆了 'chilly'(寒冷)和 'cold'(感冒)。'Chilly' 描述温度低或态度冷淡,而 'cold' 作为名词可指感冒。应改为描述温度原因。

❌ 错误:The water is chilly to drink.
✓ 正确:The water is cold to drink.

'Chilly' 通常不直接用于描述液体温度,更常用于空气或氛围。'Cold' 更适用于描述饮料或水的低温,因此应使用 'cold'。
