常见错误

❌ 错误:My baby is a toddler now, he can run very fast.
✓ 正确:My toddler is learning to walk, but he still stumbles sometimes.

错误用法中'run very fast'不符合幼儿学步阶段的典型特征;正确用法强调'learning to walk',更准确地描述幼儿的行为。

❌ 错误:I have a toddler who is 5 years old.
✓ 正确:I have a preschooler who is 5 years old.

toddler通常指1-3岁的幼儿,5岁孩子已超出此范围,应使用preschooler等词。
