易错句子My arm is pain.
正确表达My arm hurts.
汉语"我的胳膊疼"里的"疼"能单独作谓语,但英语 pain 是名词,不能放在 be 动词后表示身体部位疼痛;表示"疼"要用动词 hurt,让身体部位作主语:My arm hurts.(也可说 I have a pain in my arm.)

易错句子He was shot on the arm.
正确表达He was shot in the arm.
表示枪击、刺伤等穿透或伤及身体内部的伤害时,英语用介词 in,不用 on;汉语"打在他的胳膊上"的"在……上"不能直译成 on。只有表面接触或撞击才用 on。

易错句子She took me by my arm.
正确表达She took me by the arm.
英语"动词 + sb + by the + 身体部位"结构中,身体部位前用定冠词 the,而不用物主代词,因为动作承受者已由 sb 表明;汉语"抓住我的胳膊"里的"我的"不能直译成 my。
hand 指胳膊末端能抓握的手掌和手指部分;arm 指从肩到腕的整条胳膊。两者是部分与整体的关系:说“手”用 hand,说整条胳膊才用 arm,不能互换。
wrist 只指手与胳膊相接处那一小段关节;arm 指整条上肢。说“手腕疼”“戴手表的地方”要用 wrist,用 arm 会指代过大。
elbow 专指胳膊中段的肘关节;arm 指整条胳膊。汉语“胳膊肘”虽含“胳膊”,译成英语时只能用 elbow,不能用 arm。
