| 单词 | really |
| 释义 | Word Frequency really(ˈrɪəlɪ) adverb 1. in reality; in actuality; assuredly it's really quite harmless 2. truly; genuinely really beautiful exclamation ▶ USAGE In strict usage adverbs of degree such as really, too, quite, very, and extremely are used only to qualify adjectives: he is really happy; she is very sad. By this rule, these words should not be used to qualify past participles that followthe verb to be, since they would then be technically qualifying verbs. With the exception of certainparticiples, such as tired or disappointed, that have come to be regarded as adjectives, all other past participles are qualifiedby adverbs such as much, greatly, seriously, or excessively: he has been much (not really) inconvenienced; she has been excessively (not too) criticized3. an exclamation of dismay, disapproval, doubt, surprise, etc 4. not really? |
