非常很極其的英文表達(dá)法
相信大家都會(huì)有這樣的經(jīng)歷: 每每用英語(yǔ)表達(dá)一些很一般的概念時(shí), 我們總會(huì)立刻想起某個(gè)表達(dá)法. 例如: 想說(shuō)很時(shí),立刻想到了very或very much; 想說(shuō)大時(shí), 則用big或large.這樣的一一對(duì)應(yīng), 大大減弱了英語(yǔ)寫(xiě)作的豐富性和生動(dòng)性.
于是這些最先為我們想到的表達(dá)法, 便成了我們提高英語(yǔ)水平的羈絆. 如果我們能把這些最常用概念的英語(yǔ)表達(dá)歸類(lèi), 總結(jié), 貧乏的英語(yǔ)表達(dá)便會(huì)渙然一新.
在英語(yǔ)中用來(lái)表達(dá)極其, 非常, 很的方式有26種:
1) most
a. very
It really is most annoying.
b. quite; very
Whatever happens, I shall most certainly attend the meeting.
注意:
most只能修飾具有主觀意見(jiàn)或感情色彩的形容詞和副詞, 表示非常, 很的概念.我們可以說(shuō) most certainly, 但不能說(shuō)most tall 或 most quick
