“good sailor”不能解释为“好水手”

【例句】He'd like to travel by sea because he is a good sailor.【误解】他想乘船旅行，因为他是个好水手。

【正确】他想乘船旅行，因为他不晕船。

【说明】He is a good sailor. 的真正涵义是：He is not liable to seasickness. 或He is seldom seasick in rough weather. 因此，good sailor的内涵是“不会晕船”。

如要表达“他是一个好水手。

”应说：He is a skilled seaman.
