常見錯誤

❌The car is remote control.
✅The car is remote-controlled.
💡remote control (no hyphen) is a noun; remote-controlled (with hyphen) is an adjective.
❌I bought a remote control helicopter.
✅I bought a remote-controlled helicopter.
💡when used as a modifier before a noun, use the hyphenated adjective form.
