The word literally says 'in a way you cannot believe'. Sometimes it means that for real — the fact is genuinely hard to accept. But English wears its strong words out, so most of the time it has into simply 'very', with nobody's belief actually in question.
這個字字面上是「到了無法相信的程度」。有時候它真的是這個意思——那件事確實難以置信。但英文的強烈字用久了會磨鈍，所以多數時候它已經淡化成單純的「非常」，沒有人真的在懷疑什麼。判斷是哪一個，看它是掛在形容詞前面（多半是「非常」），還是修飾整句話（多半是真的驚訝）。
