易错句子Collard greens is my favorite side dish.
正确表达Collard greens are my favorite side dish.
collard greens 是复数形式的固定说法(greens 为复数),作主语时谓语要用复数 are;汉语名词没有单复数标记,谓语也不随主语变化,所以容易误用单数 is。

易错句子The farmer picked three collard this morning.
正确表达The farmer picked three collards this morning.
collard 是可数名词,前面有具体数词 three 时要用复数形式 collards;汉语名词本身不标复数,学习者常忽略加 -s。
collard 指羽衣甘蓝中叶片宽大平滑、不卷心的那一类,美国人常以复数 collard greens 指煮食的这道菜;kale 是更宽的上位词,可指卷叶、深色叶等多个品种。泛指这类蔬菜时两者都能用,但点菜或买菜时 collard 通常特指宽叶平叶的那种。
collard 只作名词,指一种叶菜;collared 是 collar 的过去式、过去分词或形容词,表示“有领的”或“被逮住的”。两者读音几乎相同,要靠句法区分:前面有冠词、在句中作主语或宾语时用名词 collard,修饰 shirt、jacket 等衣物时用 collared。
两者都是叶菜,但 collard 属甘蓝类,叶片较平滑、偏蓝绿色,多煮食;chard 是甜菜的一种,叶柄常呈鲜红或白色,味道带甜菜特有的土甜味。中文里 collard 译“羽衣甘蓝”,chard 译“莙荙菜”,在菜谱和种子包装上不可互换。
