用法筆記

British English spelling: vaporise/vaporised/vaporising. The American English equivalent uses 'z' (vaporize/vaporized/vaporizing). The related noun in British English is vapour (US: vapor). This verb often describes a physical or chemical process and is common in scientific and cooking contexts.

常見錯誤

❌The water vaporised into steam' (redundant: vaporised already means turning into gas).
✅The water vaporised.' or 'The water turned into steam.
💡'vaporise' already contains the meaning of changing into a gas, so specifying 'into steam' is acceptable when the type of gas matters, but can feel redundant with 'into gas'.
