「我媽昨天在花園裡種了一些花」為什麼不能直譯成標題裡的
“My mom grew some flowers in the garden yesterday.” 呢?
這是因為很多人在學英文單字時沒有真正理解它的意思
會以為反正 grow 就是「種」
只要中文裡講到「種」某種植物、作物、花草都可以用這個字

事實上,grow 這個字指的是「種植」,它是常態性的農業行為
而且「種植」任何東西都是要花相當時間的
不可能只有昨天才「種植」某種東西
但是我們可以說
The farmer grows rice (for a living).
(這名農夫種米(為生)。)
Most villagers in the mountains used to grow tea.
(山區大部份的村民過去是種茶的。)
You can’t grow peaches in this weather.
(在這種天氣下無法種水蜜桃。)
要指媽媽昨天在花園了「種」了一些花
正確的動詞應該用 plant
它指的才是把某個東西「種下去」,種進泥土裡
所以這句要改為 My mom planted some flowers in the garden yesterday. 才對
