用法筆記

More common in formal or professional writing than in everyday conversation. In casual English, 'test-taker' or 'candidate' is usually preferred. The suffix '-ee' indicates a person who receives an action, so a testee is someone being tested, not someone conducting a test.

常見錯誤

❌I am a testee in the exam.
✅I am taking the exam.
💡'testee' sounds overly formal for everyday speech about yourself; use 'test-taker' or simply say you are taking the test.
❌The testee graded the papers.
✅The examiner graded the papers.
💡'testee' means the person being tested, not the person giving or marking the test.
