常见错误

错误使用“of”表示参与关系;正确应用“in”表示在某个竞赛或活动中作为挑战者,更符合英语习惯。

❌ 错误:She challenger him to a race.
✓ 正确:She challenged him to a race.

误将名词“challenger”用作动词;正确形式应为动词“challenge”,表示发起挑战的动作。

“competitor”泛指任何参与者,强调竞争关系,但不一定涉及挑战权威;而“challenger”特指向现有地位或权威发起挑战的人,更具对抗性。

opponent

“opponent”强调对立或反对的立场,可用于各种对抗场景;而“challenger”更侧重于主动挑战并试图取代对方,常用于竞赛或法律语境。
