prevent from用法

prevent (transitive verb):
~ to stop something from happening

one usage:
prevent something (from) doing something

The preposition "from" is used to say what is prevented or forbidden, but can be omitted, especially in British English.

The data can prevent from getting lost. (it is wrong in meaning)

The sentence should be rewritten as:
1. The safety device can prevent the data from getting lost.
2. The data can be prevented from getting lost.

這句是錯的用法

按這句的文法和句意是:

這些數據可以預防(唔知甚麼)被遺失。

意思是數據識得做一些功能防止(唔知乜)走失。

這是文法造句最基本的主詞動詞受詞的結構錯用...

數據本身是死物...不能動作去防止或預防甚麼...

我估計作者的意思是"有某樣東西可以使data不致遺失..

假如要用data作為主體便要寫成被動式

The data can be prevented from getting lost.

或用主動式

This can prevent data from getting lost.
