常见错误

❌ 错误:The work is not finished yet, it's unfinish.
✓ 正确:The work is not finished yet, it's unfinished.

错误使用了动词形式“unfinish”,正确应为形容词“unfinished”,表示未完成的状态。

❌ 错误:I have an unfinished homework to do.
✓ 正确:I have unfinished homework to do.

“homework”是不可数名词,不应加冠词“an”,直接使用“unfinished homework”即可。

incomplete

“incomplete”强调缺少部分或整体不完整,可能无法使用;而“unfinished”侧重于过程未结束,可能仍在进行中。
