Improper use of verbs taking one objects

带一个宾语的动词使用不当

  知道

Know

 

  Example:

  Wrong:昨天我们见过面,我知道他。

  Right:昨天我们见过面,我认识他。

  “知道”means to be conscious of a fact. “认识”means to be acquainted with somebody. “认识”should be used instead of “知道”.

 

  Example:

  Wrong:我不太知道中国,我想去看看。

  Right:我不太了解中国,我想去看看。

  The speaker means that he does not know much about China and wants to have a look with his own eyes. He ought to use “了解”rather than “知道”.
