🌋REGRET
📍1️⃣I regretted being late to the interview.
📍2️⃣We regret to inform you that you have not been selected for interview.
1️⃣嘅"regret+gerund"就係「後悔做咗一件事」,所以"being late"呢個gerund就係一個noun phrase,1️⃣係「我後悔去面試時遲到」。
2️⃣嘅"regret+to-infinitive"係一個比較特別嘅case, 佢會同啲特別嘅to-infinitive放埋一齊,例如"to inform/tell"等等,係一個formal嘅方式去announce一啲bad news,個意思同"I am sorry that..."係一樣嘅。2️⃣個意思係「我地非常遺憾你沒有面試的資格。😨」(vocabno嘅followers咁醒一定唔會聽到呢句。🤔😍)
