用法筆記

Unlike most adjectives, 'included' is most often placed after the noun it modifies (e.g., 'tax included', 'all items included'). The passive construction 'be included in' is the most frequent pattern in everyday use.

常見錯誤

❌The price is 2000 dollars, included tax.
✅The price is 2000 dollars, including tax.
💡'including' is the preposition that introduces the part; 'included' as an adjective goes after the noun (e.g., 'tax included').
❌Does the package included a charger?
✅Does the package include a charger?
💡With the auxiliary verb 'does', the base form 'include' is needed, not the adjective 'included'.
