易错句子I am graduate of Peking University.
正确表达I am a graduate of Peking University.
graduate 作名词是可数名词，指“毕业生”这一类人，单数形式前必须加不定冠词 a/an。汉语“我是……毕业生”没有冠词，所以中国学习者容易漏掉 a。

易错句子After graduate, she moved to Beijing.
正确表达After graduation, she moved to Beijing.
after 是介词，后面必须接名词。graduate 指“毕业生”（人），而“毕业”这件事对应的名词是 graduation。汉语“毕业后”用动词加方位词表达，容易被直译成 after graduate，导致词性错误。
