22: He is probable to win the game.是正确的句子吗?

Question22: Is it correct to say "He is probable to win
the game"?


Answer: It's a wrong sentence. "Probable" can only be
followed by a subordinate clause and the subject of the
sentence cannot be a person. It is more common for us to
say "It is probablethat he will win the game." Also we
may use "likely" to replace "probable" in the original
sentence. e.g. He is likely to win the game.

问题22: He is probable to win the game.是正确的句子吗?

回答: 这句句子是错误的。probable不能由人称作主语而且后面
只能接从句。我们通常说It is probable that he will win the
game。另外,我们也可以用likely替代原句中的probable: He is
likely to win the game.
