Common mistakes
The garbage fetors badly.The garbage has a fetor that is badly.
Fetor 是名词,不是动词。中文学习者可能误以为所有表示“发出气味”的词都是动词,但 fetor 只能用作名词,表示“恶臭”本身。应使用 have a fetor 或类似结构。
There were many fetors coming from the lab.There was much fetor coming from the lab.
Fetor 通常不可数,因此不能用 many 或复数形式。学习者受中文“各种恶臭”影响,可能将其视为可数名词,但标准英语中 fetor 为不可数名词,应用 much 或 a lot of。
