中式英語之鑑:被罰了

padding-bottom: 100%;">

218. 韋尼格先生因酒後駕車被罰了100美元。

[誤] Mr. Vinegar was punished $100 for drunken driving.

[正] Mr. Vinegar was fined $100 for drunken driving.

注：punish 後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
禁）或 He was unished to pay $100 for drunk driving。專門用來表示罰款的動詞是 fine，其後可直接加被罰金額。
