    示範例句 · Example

    Let's play tennis in the park after school.

    逐字放學後我們去公園打網球吧。

    tennis 就是「網球」這項運動：兩個人（單打）或兩對人（雙打）隔著一張網，用球拍把小球打來打去。它是不可數名詞，所以說 play tennis（打網球）不加 a，也沒有複數 tenises。相關字：tennis court（網球場）、tennis racket（球拍）、tennis ball（網球）。

core核心畫面

One way to picture tennis: two players (or two pairs) on either side of a net, hitting a small ball back and forth with until one side cannot return it. The word names the game itself, so it takes no article — you play tennis, not a tennis.

可以想成 tennis 就是球網兩邊各站一人（或一組），用球拍把小球來回打過網，直到有一邊接不到。這個字指的是這項運動本身，所以前面不加冠詞——英文說 play tennis，不會說 play a tennis。
