中式英語之鑑:激動的心情

padding-bottom: 100%;">

93. 歐文按捺不住激動的心情，大聲喊道：“我中獎了！”

[誤] Owen couldn't hold back his exciting feeling, and he shouted, "I've got the winning number in the bond!"

[正] Owen couldn't hold back his excitement, and he shouted, "I've got the winning number in the bond!"

注：exciting feeling 這種搭配很不地道，雖然“振奮人心的消息”是 exciting news，“有趣的故事”是 interesting story，但“激動的心情”卻要用名詞形式 excitement 來表達。
