It may be that foreigners can understand what you want to express in oral communication, but it is not correct.<br \/>\nCorrect statement is: How do you say(spell) this in English?<br \/>\n<strong>2.The price is too expensive. <\/strong><br \/>\nIn English, words such as price (price), cost (cost), and expense (fare) cannot be used with expensive, but only with high or low, because expensive has already expressed the meaning of expensive.<br \/>\nCorrect statement: The price is too high. Or It is too expensive.<br \/>\n<strong>3.Welcome you to Beijing!\/I welcome you to use my car. <\/strong><br \/>\nThese two sentences are also frequently appearing in Chinese English. The word Welcome can be used as a noun, adjective, and transitive verb.<br \/>\nCorrect statement: Welcome to Beijing!\/You&#8217;re welcome to use my car. \/They warmly welcomed us at the airport.\/ They gave us a warm welcome.<br \/>\n<strong>4.My English is poor. <\/strong><br \/>\nMost foreigners don&#8217;t understand what you&#8217;re talking about.<br \/>\nCorrect statement: I&#8217;m not good at English. Or I cannot speak English very well.<br \/>\n<strong>5.I think I can&#8217;t do it.<\/strong><br \/>\nNegatives like I think I can&#8217;t do it in Chinese are accustomed to be put later, but in English it&#8217;s the exact opposite.<br \/>\nCorrect statement: I don&#8217;t think I can do it.<br \/>\n<strong>6.I forgot my book at home.<\/strong><br \/>\nThis sentence has nothing to say, and it is estimated that it has been corrected countless times.<br \/>\nCorrect statement: I left my book at home.<br \/>\n<strong>7.Tom&#8217;s life is happy.<\/strong><br \/>\nThe English word Happy is emotional and is mostly used for people who are happy and happy. The subject is Tom.<br \/>\nCorrect statement: Tom is happy.\/ Tom lives a happy life.<br \/>\n<strong>8.Beancurd \/yellow hair<\/strong><br \/>\nThese terms are frequently mentioned Chinese.
