pig out

pig out on + food

用法筆記

Always informal — not appropriate in formal writing or polite company. Use 'pig out on' to name the food; without 'on' it simply means eating too much in general.

常見錯誤

'pig out' needs 'on' before the food you ate.
She pigged out in the party.
She pigged out at the party.
use 'at' for the place or event, not 'in'.
