示範例句 · Example
It rained hard all morning, but luckily the school trip was in the afternoon.
逐字整個早上雨下得很大,但幸好校外教學是在下午。
「luckily」是一個管整句話的副詞,通常放在句首加逗號,或接在 but 後面。它說的不是「某人運氣好」,而是「還好有這件事,不然就麻煩了」——所以每個 luckily 的句子背後,都藏著一個沒有發生的壞結果。可以想成:luck(沒計畫到的好事)長出 lucky(幸運的),再加 -ly 之後它就跳出動詞的位置,替整句話講話,變成說話的人對事情結果的評語。fortunately 意思幾乎一樣,只是比較正式、比較常出現在文章裡。

You can think of it as the speaker back and pointing at one thing that saved the situation. It doesn't describe how someone did something — it comments on the whole story: things could easily have gone badly, and this one detail is why they didn't.
