文法句型

LGBTQ+ + noun

用法筆記

Almost always used attributively before a noun (LGBTQ+ community, LGBTQ+ rights, LGBTQ+ youth). Rarely placed after the verb 'be' on its own — for that, speakers say 'in the LGBTQ+ community' or name a specific identity.

常見錯誤

My cousin is LGBTQ+.
My cousin is part of the LGBTQ+ community.
💡most speakers feel awkward using LGBTQ+ as a stand-alone predicate adjective for one person; pair it with a noun like 'community', 'family', or a specific identity instead.
