常见错误

❌ 错误:The mistranslation is because the translator is not careful.
✓ 正确:The mistranslation occurred because the translator was not careful.

错误:'mistranslation' 作为名词,不能直接与 'is because' 搭配表示原因;应使用动词如 'occurred' 或 'was caused' 来连接。改正后句子更符合英语语法习惯。

❌ 错误:He made a mistranslation in the book.
✓ 正确:There is a mistranslation in the book.

错误:'make a mistranslation' 不常用,可能受中文 '做错译' 影响;英语中更自然地使用 'there is a mistranslation' 或 'a mistranslation exists' 来描述存在错译。
