日本語話者が間違えやすい点

誤り Let's start from introducing ourselves.
正しい Let's start by introducing ourselves.
「自己紹介から始めましょう」の「から」をfromにしがちですが、最初にする動作はstart by＋-ing形で言います。start fromはstart from the beginning、start from page tenのように出発点を言うときの形です。

よくある間違い

誤り I watched television when the storm started.

正しい I was watching television when the storm started.

両方の動詞を過去形にしてしまう人が多いのですが、意味が変わってしまいます。I cooked when the phone rangは「電話が鳴ってから料理を始めた」という意味です。「電話が鳴ったとき料理をしていた」なら、I was cooking when the phone rangです。

過去進行形（Past Progressive）

よく一緒に使う言葉

start a family — 子どもをもうける
start over — 一からやり直す
get started — 取りかかる

まぎらわしい動詞

begin 意味はほぼ同じですが、beginのほうが少しあらたまっています。エンジンや機械が動き出すのはstartだけです。
open 店や施設が営業を始めるのはopen、行事や活動が始まるのはstartです。
