常見錯誤
✗
We go to shopping after school.
✓
We go shopping after school.
go + V-ing 結構不可加 to；應說 go shopping，而不是 go to shopping。
✗
I’m go shopping now.
✓
I’m going shopping now.
現在進行式要用 be + V-ing；go 需變成 going。
✗
We shop clothes at that store.
✓
We shop for clothes at that store. / We buy clothes at that store.
shop 作動詞多為不及物，常搭配 for + 受詞；若直接接受詞應改用 buy。
✗
We will go to buy clothes this afternoon.
✓
We’re going shopping for clothes this afternoon.
表未來安排可用現在進行式；且搭配 go shopping for + 名詞，比 go to buy 更自然。
