常见误用提醒

使用 outguess:I outguessed to win the game. → I outguessed my opponent to win the game. (错误:缺少宾语。outguess 是及物动词,必须后接宾语(如人或事物)。正确用法应加上宾语,如“my opponent”。)

使用 outguess:She outguessed about his plan. → She outguessed his plan. (错误:误加介词“about”。outguess 直接接宾语,不需要介词。正确用法是直接说“outguessed his plan”。)

使用 predict:I predict him to come early. → I predict that he will come early. (predict 通常接 that 从句表示预测内容,而不是不定式结构;应改为从句形式以避免语法错误。)
