西班牙语母语者常犯的错误
Spanish speakers sometimes make these mistakes when talking about food:

In Spanish, you say Tengo hambre (I have hunger). But in English, we use the verb to be:
- ✗ I have hungry.
- ✓ I am hungry.
Mistake 2: Using "like + verb" without "to."
After like, 使用 to + verb 或 verb + -ing.
- ✗ I like eat apples.
- ✓ I like to eat apples.
- ✓ I like eating apples.
