常见误用提醒

使用 inhibitory:The drug is inhibitory for the disease. → The drug has an inhibitory effect on the disease. (错误在于直接使用 'is inhibitory for',这不符合英语习惯。正确用法是 'has an inhibitory effect on',因为 inhibitory 通常修饰名词如 effect,表示抑制效果。)

使用 inhibitory:She felt inhibitory to join the discussion. → She felt inhibited from joining the discussion. (错误在于混淆了形容词 inhibitory 和动词 inhibit 的用法。Inhibitory 描述事物性质,而 'felt inhibited' 使用动词过去分词表示个人感受被抑制。应改为 'felt inhibited from' 以正确表达阻止参与。)

使用 restrictive:The rule is restrict to students only. → The rule is restrictive to students only. (错误使用了动词形式 'restrict',应改为形容词 'restrictive' 来描述规则的性质。)
