dislike、hate、hatred
Hello, I'm spencer.
I am here to teach you new phrases and idioms to express your feelings.
Today I will introduce different ways to say that you really dislike or hate something.
Let's get started.
This video will help you sound more like a native speaker.
The most common way to say you hate or dislike something is to use the verbs dislike and hate.
For example:
I hate hot summer days or I dislike sweet food.
You can also use hate with a verb, an action, by adding 'to' before the verb or 'ing' to the verb stem.
你也可以使用 "hate" ,帶有靜態動詞(verb)和藉由在 "verb" 之前加 "to" 或加 "ing" 在動詞詞幹中的動態動詞(action)。
You can also use "hate" with another verb that expresses a state action by adding "to" in front of the state verb or "ing" in the verb stem.
您也可以運用 "hate",
與另一個表示狀態動作的動詞一起使用,
藉由在狀態動詞前面加上"to",或在動詞詞幹裡加上"ing"。
你也可以在狀態動詞前面加上「to」或在動詞字幹中加上「ing」來將 "hate" 與另一個表達狀態行為的動詞一起使用。
For instance:
I hate waking up early and I hate to say goodbye.
With dislike you can also use it with a verb but it's important to note you cannot use 'the infinite to' with the verb.
You can only add 'ing' to the verb stem.
For example:
I dislike listening to loud music and I dislike going to high places.
Firstly:
Instead of using dislike you can use 'not a fan of' or 'not big on' .
取代 "dislike",你可以使用 "not a fan of" 或 "not big on"。
你可以使用 "not a fan of" 或 "not big on" 來取代 "dislike"。
This means you don't really like something or someone.
這表示你不喜歡某件事或某人。這意味著你並不真正喜歡某事或某人。
You can also use it with a verb but only by adding 'ing' to the verb stem.
你也可以與動詞搭配使用,但只能在動詞詞幹上加上 "ing"。
For instance:
I'm not a fan of fruit pie or He's not big on sharing his feelings.
我不喜歡水果派,或是他不喜歡分享他的感受。
From dislike to hate to disgust.
從不喜歡到討厭再到反感(噁心)。
Secondly:
Instead of using hate you can use 'disgust' or 'disgusted by'.
This means you completely hate something.
Both can be used with a verb but you must add 'ing' to the verb stem.
'Disgusted by' is used when the subject of the sentence is a person.
For instance:
He is disgusted by cold noodles or I am disgusted by loud chewing.
'Disgust' is used when the subject of the sentence is the person or object that someone hates.
For example:
She disgusts me.
Thirdly :
You can say something or someone makes a person sick.
This means you hate something so much you feel sick.
The subject of the sentence is the person or object that someone hates.
For instance:
That video makes her sick or you make me sick.
It can also be used with a verb but you must add 'ing' to the verb stem.
For instance:
Lying makes me sick.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now that you learn some new phrases.
Listen to a short conversation and see if you can pick out the idiom that means you dislike or hate something.
*********************************************************
Ugh... do you see that over there?
See what?
Those plastic bottles and wrappers on the ground.
Oh, I see them. What's the big deal?
There's a trash can nearby. I don't understand why people can't throw away their trash.
I see it really bothers you.
Yeah, I can't stand the sight of littering.
In that case, let's pick up the trash and throw it away in the trash can.
*********************************************************
Did you catch the idiom in the conversation?
If you said 'can't stand the sight of', you're right!
Yeah, I can't stand the sight of littering.
This is an idiom that means you hate to see something or someone.
This idiom can be used with an action like in the conversation by adding 'ing' to the verb stem.
She said, "She can't stand the sight of littering."
'Litter' means to throw trash on the ground.
You can also say, "I can't stand the sight of him." or "He can't stand the sight of fish."

誰都會犯過錯。
所以人們在鉛筆的另一頭裝上了橡皮。
所以不要怕錯,改就行了。
如果鉛筆還沒用完,但是橡皮已經用完了。
說明什麼?
說明已經錯過頭了。
如果把我們把鉛筆換成鋼筆,就沒橡皮可以改錯了。
說明什麼?
說明小的時候犯了錯,可以改。長大了就要為自己的過錯負責。
Everyone makes mistakes. That's why they put an eraser on the other end of the pencil. So don't be afraid to make mistakes, just correct them. If the pencil hasn't run out, but the eraser has. What does that mean? It means that you have missed a lot. If we replace the pencil with a fountain pen, there will be no eraser to correct the mistake. What does it say? It means that if we made a mistake when we were young, we can correct it. When we grow up, we have to be responsible for our own mistakes.
