Common mistakes
He is wearer of contact lenses.He is a wearer of contact lenses.
wearer 是单数可数名词,用作表语时需要不定冠词 a;汉语没有冠词,所以容易漏掉,但英语中 a wearer 才是正确形式。
She is wearer the red dress.She is wearing the red dress.
要表达“她正穿着那条红裙子”,需要用动词 wear 的现在分词 wearing 构成现在进行时 is wearing;wearer 是名词“穿着者”,不能作谓语,也不能直接跟宾语 the red dress。
