易错句子In the sentence “She wants to swim”, “wants” is a verbal.
正确表达In the sentence “She wants to swim”, “wants” is a verb, not a verbal.
verbal 的定义是“不充当谓语的动词形式”。句中 “wants” 正是谓语,所以它只能是 verb(谓语动词),不是 verbal;这里的 verbal 是不定式 “to swim”。汉语的“动词”一词涵盖所有动词形式,学习者因此容易把充当谓语的动词也说成 verbal。

正确表达In English, there are three verbals: the infinitive, the participle and the gerund.
verbal 是可数名词,复数形式为 verbals。汉语名词没有单复数的形态变化,学习者在数词 three 后容易漏掉 -s,写成 three verbal;凡指一个以上时必须用复数 verbals。

易错句子A gerund is not a verbal; only the infinitive and the participle are verbals.
正确表达A gerund is also a verbal; the infinitive, the participle and the gerund are all verbals.
verbal 是上位统称,其含义明确包含不定式、分词和动名词,所以动名词同样是 verbal。学习者常把动名词视为与 verbal 并列的另一类,因而否认它属于 verbal;把 “is not a verbal” 改为 “is also a verbal” 才符合定义。
