"previously"是副词,表示时间或顺序上的先前状态,指某事件、行为或情况发生在当前讨论时间点之前。该词源自古法语"prevois",最终源自拉丁语"praevius"(由"prae"(前)和"via"(道路)构成),本义为"在道路上先行"的隐喻延伸。
在语言学应用中,"previously"常用于学术论文和正式文件,用于建立时间逻辑关系,例如:"The experiment previously described yielded conclusive results"(前文所述的实验产生了结论性结果)。剑桥英语语料库显示,该词在科技文献中的使用频率比日常对话高3.2倍。
该词的近义词包括"formerly""earlier",但存在细微差别:"formerly"强调永久性状态改变(如职位变动),而"previously"侧重暂时性时间关系。美联社文体手册建议,在新闻报道中优先使用"previously"来保持客观时序。
