"awfully" 是英語中常見的副詞,主要有兩種含義:
表示程度極高
在非正式語境中,它用于強調某種狀态的程度,相當于“非常、極其”。例如:
"The coffee was awfully bitter."(這咖啡苦得厲害)
此用法常見于口語,表達誇張或情感強調(參考來源:牛津詞典 https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/)。
表示糟糕的方式
在正式或文學語境中,可描述負面行為或結果,意為“惡劣地”或“令人不快地”。例如:
"He treated his colleagues awfully."(他對待同事的方式很惡劣)
該用法現已較少見,多出現在曆史文本或特定表達中(參考來源:劍橋詞典 https://dictionary.cambridge.org/)。
詞源與演變
"awfully" 源自中古英語“awe”(敬畏),最初指“令人敬畏地”,後逐漸衍生出負面含義。現代英語中,其表程度的用法已脫離原始詞義,成為獨立表達(參考來源:柯林斯詞典 https://www.collinsdictionary.com/)。
