Common mistakes
She traipsed the whole city looking for her keys.She traipsed around the whole city looking for her keys.
traipse 作动词时是不及物动词,不能直接接地点宾语;要表示“在……走来走去/逛”,必须加 around、through 等介词。改成 around the whole city 后,地点成为介词短语,句子结构才正确。
We had traipse around the old town.We had a traipse around the old town.
traipse 作名词是可数名词,表示“一次闲逛/疲惫的行走”时需要有冠词 a(复数形式为 traipses);中文没有冠词,所以容易漏掉。have a traipse around 是常用搭配,表示“在……逛一趟”。
