簡單的英文問題

I like to play guitar, this is correct.
But do I have to add 'the' when I say

I like to play piano or
I like to play 'the' piano..

It seems the first one is more correct.
But someone challenged me that I should add 'the' whenever I mention 'piano'.

:icon075: 加左 the 個 focus 唔同左 ....

前者係你喜歡彈琴呢項活動/習慣 ....

後者係你喜歡彈那一個琴 ....

同樣好少人會講 play the football, play the mah-jong ....

實用英語話你知:彈琴 (Play the piano)


有讀者問為甚麼彈琴不是 Play piano?

很多人以為彈琴是 Play piano,這錯誤非常普遍。可能大家對英文冠詞(Articles)不熟悉。有時 the 與單數可數名詞連用,可以表示泛指,而科學儀器、發明品及樂器的名稱都常常這樣用。例如:Life would be quieter without the telephone 是「要是沒有電話,生活可就會清靜一些了」,I am learning to play the piano 是「我正在學彈鋼琴」等於 I am learning the piano,Who's that on the piano? 是「那個彈鋼琴的是誰呀?」,The violin is more difficult than the piano 是「拉小提琴比彈琴更為困難」。所以拉小提琴是 Play the violin,「彈吉他」是 Play the guitar,「吹號角」是 Play the horn。注意:「踢足球」是 Play football ,「打籃球」是 Play basketball,「打排球」是 Play volleyball,打球都不加 the。
