    示範例句 · Example

    I completely forgot to bring my library book today.

    逐字我完全忘記今天要帶我的圖書館的書。

    completely 可以想成從 complete(完整、沒有缺一塊)長出來的副詞:它把一件事推到尺的最尾端,所以後面很適合接「全有或全無」的詞,例如 completely different(完全不一樣)、completely forgot(完全忘記)、completely dry(完全乾了)。程度上比 fairly、quite 強很多,跟 totally 幾乎可以互換;entirely 意思一樣,但比較常出現在否定句或 almost 後面,像 not entirely sure。

core核心畫面

Picture a container filled right to the brim, with no gap left anywhere. This word pushes whatever it modifies all the way to the end of the scale — not mostly, not nearly, but with nothing at all left over.

可以想成:一個容器裝到滿出邊緣,任何一個角落都沒有空隙。這個字會把它修飾的那個詞推到刻度的最末端——不是差不多、不是幾乎,而是一點都不剩。
