易错句子All winter coats discount this week.
正确表达All winter coats are discounted this week.
discount 表示“降价出售”时是及物动词，被降价的商品要作宾语，或改用被动 be discounted，不能像汉语“大衣打折了”那样让商品自己作主语、不带宾语。

易错句子The shop discounted 30% on all shoes.
正确表达The shop discounted all shoes by 30%.
discount 的宾语是被降价的商品或价格，折扣幅度要用 by + 百分比表示；动词 discount 也不与 on 搭配。汉语“打折 30%”把幅度直接接在动词后，英语需改成 by 30%。
