我告訴了你們多少次了呢？
學了很多年英文的學生說的哦：
X I was so nervous I had to go to the bathroom for more than ten times.
原意是，「我好緊張，緊張到要上廁所十幾次。」
問題在哪呢？
看過我風靡全世界的暢銷書《親愛的英文，我到底哪裡錯了？》就知道你需要拿掉那個 for!
√ I was so nervous I had to go to the bathroom more than ten times.
_______________
關鍵：
★★★ “times” (幾次) 不會搭配 “for”! ★★★
X I’ve been to Japan for several times.
√ I’ve been to Japan several times.
（我去過日本幾次。）

精通 times 的人也會忘記 once 與 twice 有一樣的問題，因為忘記了它們就是 one time & two times 的意思！
X I’ve only seen a movie star at the airport for once.
√ I’ve only seen a movie star at the airport once.
（我只有一次在機場看到電影明星。）
X I went out with him for twice, but decided he wasn’t my type.
√ I went out with him twice, but decided he wasn’t my type.
（我跟他約會兩次，後來決定他不是我的菜。）

I’ve told my students about this so many TIMES!
