"我因為酒后駕車被罰了200 "這是一句很簡單的話，來看看你會不會犯中國式英語的錯誤吧。用英語應(yīng)該怎么說呢？
【英文對比翻譯】
Chinese Style -- I was punished 200 for drunken driving.
American Style -- I was fined 200 for drunken driving.
點評：
punish 后面不直接加具體懲罰，如：He was punished by long terms of imprisonment（他被處以長期監(jiān)禁）或 He was punished to pay $100 for drunk driving。專門用來表示罰款的動詞是 fine，其后可直接加被罰金額。
