刚来加时，公寓里有人搬家卖家具，当时英语很差，特意请本地朋友帮忙打电话，问一个看中的电器，朋友那起电话说了一句话，就挂了，告知卖了。然后有补充了一句，又是个移民。我佩服地说，五秒钟都能知道？朋友解释，对方只说了一个词：Sold out.
有一段时间很爱用Know，同事朋友聊天，说起某事，我也积极参与，说I know someone, blah blah...，后来又扩展到物,Something I know, a book, etc。终于被纠正了，要用Know of。I know someone means I personal know the person. 如只是听说，或朋友的朋友，那是Know of. 同样，英语里Know something 好象多用Know of or know about。
好像：Miss & Miss out; Sold & Sold out, 诸如此类。
省略that, which, who 等好像不大影响句意，可省略这些out, up, to, of, on 等常常引起误会。
