教學時，我們常看到學生在特定單字群組使用上抓不到訣竅。這也促使我們決定在本站招牌的「文法講座」外，再加開「單字講座」，目標自然是要讓大家學得快，又學得好 😊😊😊😊
▍accompany (v) 陪伴 / 伴隨著
▶ 例 1：Sue 有點醉了，需要我陪她回家。
Sue was a little drunk and needed me to accompany her home.
= Sue was a little drunk. She needed me to walk her home and keep her company.
註：陪伴某人：accompany sb = keep sb company
▶ 例 2：我的頭痛，伴隨著一陣陣的噁心感，讓我無法開口說話。
The headache, accompanied by waves of nausea, made it impossible for me to speak.
▍company (n) firm 公司/ 陪伴
▶ 例 1：在這波嚴重經濟衰退之下，他的公司，和許多其他公司一樣，破產了。
During the severe economic recession, like many others, his company went bankrupt.
▶ 例 2：我常常和 Bob 一起，因為我喜歡他的陪伴。
I hang out with Bob very often because I enjoy his company.
▍companion (n) 同伴朋友 / 旅伴
▶ 例 1：他避開我們的陪伴，偏好和酒友廝混。
He avoided our company, preferring to spend his time with his drinking companions.
結論：accompany為「動詞」。company 和 companion 為「名詞」。
