一般说来,与形容词同形的副词通常表示具体情况,而带-ly 副词一般表示抽象概念,如:
high 高地 highly 高度地,非常
wide 广阔 widely 广泛地
close 接近地 closely 仔细地,密切地
deep 深地 deeply 深深地,非常
另外,修饰形容词或在动词前通常只用-ly 副词。如:
I bought this car cheap [cheaply]. 我买这汽车买得很便宜。
This car was cheaply bought. 这辆汽车买得很便宜。
有时两者的意义相差很大,如:
hard 努力地,坚硬地 hardly 几乎不
near 不远,近 nearly 几乎
most 最,大多数 mostly 主要地,大部分,通常
late 晚,迟 lately 最近
free 免费地,松动地 free 自由地,随便地,无限制地
某些固定表达是否带-ly 视习惯而定。如:
deep in thought 沉思 deep into the night 深夜
take it easy 别急 easy come, easy go 易得则易失
sound asleep 熟睡 wide open 完全开着
wide awake 完全醒着
