易错句子It is your turn playing.
正确表达It is your turn to play.
表示“轮到某人做某事”时,英语用 one's turn to do sth,turn 后接不定式作后置定语;playing 是动名词,不能直接跟在 turn 后表达该义。中文“轮到你玩”没有不定式标记,容易误用 -ing。

易错句子We should take turn to clean the classroom.
正确表达We should take turns to clean the classroom.
take turns 是固定短语,表示“轮流做某事”,turn 必须用复数;take turn 缺少复数或冠词,不符合该搭配,也不能表达轮流的意思。

易错句子Make a turn left at the corner.
正确表达Make a left turn at the corner.
名词 turn 表示“转弯”时,left/right 作前置定语构成 a left turn / a right turn;turn left 是动词短语,不能放在名词 turn 后作宾语。中文“向左转”的语序容易让学习者写成 a turn left。

round 指所有参与者各做一次所构成的一整轮,是一个完整循环;turn 指其中某一个人这一次的机会。另外,英式英语里 “it's my round” 指轮到我请大家喝一轮,与 “it's my turn” 的“轮到我”在语境上有交集,要按“请客”还是“次序”来区分。
go 是英式口语说法,多用于棋盘、纸牌等游戏和儿童之间,含义几乎与 turn 相同;turn 中性通用,英美皆用,正式或书面场合也用它。美式英语一般不用 go 表示“轮次”。
move 强调实际走出的一步棋或实际采取的行动;turn 强调轮到谁的时刻和机会。下棋时说 “it's your turn” 是在提示轮到你,说 “it's your move” 是在催你走出这一步,两者不能互换。
