英文裡有很多字，既是名詞又是動詞，像value, account, verge......一旦我們熟悉這些字的名詞形式，就會依賴它們的名詞形式，一用再用，動詞形式自然就鈍化了。
學會用「名詞的動詞形式」，英文會好到你自己也意想不到的境界。
不信你看看，左邊的是你的慣用句，文法看來沒錯，但就是千篇一律，沒有動作！這類我們稱之靜態英文，靜態英文最大的敗筆就是過度使用be動詞。
靜態英文 / 動感英文
MediaTek is number one in worldwide market share for various high-end digital consumer products / MediaTek ranks first in worldwide market share for various high-end digital consumer products.
The total of your bill is NT$ 500 / Your bill totals to NT$ 500.
Her TOEIC scores are good. / She scores well on the TOEIC test.
His weight is 75kgs. / He weighs 75Kgs.
We form a team for this new project. / We team up for this new project.
The bank gave us a credit of 50,000 dollars. / The bank credited 50,000 dollars to us.
這類字還有很多，像schedule, measure, progress, access, fold, sort, spin, average.....概稱之為2nd tier verbs，現在讓你的名詞動態出現，你講的是動感英文：有節奏和速度感！

Your bill totals to NT$ 500. 中total為一及物動詞 毋需加介詞to 若一定要用to 動詞可改用amount (amount to = total)

Cool! Now we can level up our English, and won't bore ourselves anymore.
In matters of style, swim with the current; in matters of principle, stand like a rock.
