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

❌I pigged out pizza.
✅I pigged out on pizza.
💡'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'.
