實用口語:如何說"罰款二百"

"我因爲酒後駕車被罰了200 "這是一句很簡單的話，來看看你會不會犯中國式英語的錯誤吧。用英語應該怎麼說呢？

【英文對比翻譯】

Chinese Style -- I was punished 200 for drunken driving.

American Style -- I was fined 200 for drunken driving.

點評：

punish 後面不直接加具體懲罰，如：He was punished by long terms of imprisonment（他被處以長期監禁）或 He was punished to pay $100 for drunk driving。專門用來表示罰款的動詞是 fine，其後可直接加被罰金額。
