When you are learning English, you find it not clever to put an English sentence, word for world, into
your own language. Take the sentence "How do you do?" for example. If you look up each word in the
dictionary, one at a time, what is your translation (翻译)? It must be a wrong sentence in your language.
Language do not just have different sounds, they are different in many ways. It's important to master
the rules of word order in the study of English, too. If the speaker put words in a wrong order, the listener
can't understand the speaker's meaning easily. Sometimes when order of words in an English sentence is
changed, the meaning of the sentence changes. But sometimes the order is changed, the meaning of the
sentence doesn't changed. Let's see the difference between the two pairs of sentences.
"She only likes apples." "Only she likes apples."
"I have seen the film already." "I have already seen the film." When you are learning English, you must
do your best to get the spirit of the languages and use it as the English speaker does.
