2 ashamed作表语与定语的疑问

书上都说 ashamed 只用作表语,不用于名词前作定语。

但是如果要翻译:她对我害羞地一笑。

我可以这样翻译吗?

She gave me an ashamed smile.

若不可以,那怎么翻译呢?

“害羞的”,不等于 “羞耻的”。前者是shy(副词为shyly);后者ashamed(副词为ashamedly)。这里不单是ashamed 能不能作定语的问题,而是用词不当的问题。无论是形容词还是副词,都不能使用ashamed 或ashamedly。

网友的句子:她对我害羞地一笑。

应该翻译为:

She smiled shyly at me.

She gave me a shy smile.
