易错句子The water is a luke.
正确表达The water is luke.
luke 是形容词,表示“微温的”,作表语时直接跟在 be 动词后,前面不能加冠词 a;加了 a 就等于把它当成了可数名词,句子不成立。去掉 a 后,is luke 才是正确的系表结构。

易错句子The milk lukes.
正确表达The milk is luke.
luke 只作形容词,不是动词,不能像 warm 那样直接作谓语,也不能加 -s 或 -ed。中文里“温”可以当动词(如“温一下牛奶”),受此影响容易把 luke 误用作动词;英语中要用 be + luke 构成系表结构。
微温的;不冷不热的
