Hello students and welcome back to my  English course on adjectives.

同學們好，歡迎回到我的英語課程--形容詞。

現在進行式

In this video, I'm going to talk to you about intensifiers and mitigators.

在這段視頻中，我將和大家談談強化劑和緩解劑。

Intensifiers are simply words that will make adjectives stronger.

強化詞簡單來說就是會讓形容詞變得更強。

They will give adjectives more power or more emphasis.

它們會給形容詞更多的力量或更多的強調。

For example, two very common intensifiers in English are 'really' and 'very'.

例如，英語中兩個非常常見的強化詞是 "真的 "和 "非常"。

Mitigators on the other hand, make the adjectives weaker like the words b'rather' or fairly'.

另一方面，緩和劑會使形容詞變得更弱，比如b'寧可'或相當'。

But we're gonna go into a little more detail.

但我們要去更詳細的瞭解一下。

And I have a list of intensifies for you.

Of course these are not all of them, but it's a good start because they are very common

當然這些並不是全部，但這是一個好的開始，因為它們是非常常見的。

The adjectives in this sentence is 'interesting' and we make it stronger with the intensifier,

這句話中的形容詞是 "有趣"，我們用加強語使其更強。

very For example, I'm very happy to learn English.

非常 例如，我很高興學習英語。

And we give it more power with the intensifier.

而我們用增強器給它更多的動力。

For example, 'Your new dress is absolutely amazing'.

例如，"你的新衣服絕對是驚人的"。

'incredibly' For example, 'Your son is incredibly smart.'

'難以置信'例如，'你兒子非常聰明'。

'completely' 'My wallet is completely empty.'

unusually 'The classroom was unusually quiet.'

Now for this last sentence, the adjective is old and II intensifier is enough.

現在最後這句話，形容詞老了，二強化詞就夠了。

It's a special case because as you can hear and see, 'enough' always comes after the

這是一個特殊的情況，因為你可以聽到和看到，"夠了 "總是在 "夠了 "之後。

Intensifiers are commonly used with comparative and superlative adjectives.

強化詞常用於比較級和超級形容詞。

For example, with comparative adjectives, we often use 'much'.

例如，對於比較性的形容詞，我們經常使用 "多"。

For example, 'He runs much faster than me.'

'Faster' is the comparative form of the adjective 'fast'.

And to intensify the comparison, we use the intensifier 'much'.

而為了加強比較，我們用了加強語 "多"。

For example, 'This red bag is a lot heavier than this white bag'.

比如'這個紅包比這個白包重很多'。

'heavier' is the comparative form of the adjective 'heavy'.

And we make it even more powerful with 'a lot heavier'.

而我們用'重了很多'讓它變得更加強大。

For example, 'She is far taller than me'.

Now with superlative adjectives, we can use 'easily'.

現在有了超級形容詞，我們可以用'輕鬆'。

For example, 'This is easily the best restaurant in town'.

例如，"這很容易成為城裡最好的餐廳"。

'best' is the superlative form of the adjective 'good'.

'最好'是形容詞'好'的上位形式。

And we make it even more powerful by saying, 'easily the best restaurant'.

而我們用 "輕而易舉地成為最好的餐廳 "來形容它，就更有說服力了。

For example, 'Sarah is by far the smartest girl in class'.

例如，"莎拉是目前班上最聰明的女孩"。

Now mitigators are the opposite of intensifiers.

現在，緩解者是強化者的對立面。

The adjective 'sunny' is weakened by the mitigator 'fairly'.

'晴朗'這個形容詞被減輕語'相當'所削弱。

So it's not sunny. It's a bit less than sunny.

所以不是晴天。比晴天還不如。

So when I say, 'I'm rather tired', I'm not exactly tired.

所以當我說'我比較累'的時候，我並不完全是累。

The adjective is less powerful because of this 'rather'.

因為這個 "而是"，形容詞的威力就小了。

Or 'quite'.  Like, 'The movie was quite good'.

或者 "相當"。  比如說，"這部電影相當不錯"。

The adjective 'good' is less powerful because of this 'quite'.

因為這個 "挺"，'好'這個形容詞的威力就小了。

Now be very careful because if you use 'quite' with an extreme adjective such as 'terrible',

現在要非常小心，因為如果你用'相當'與一個極端的形容詞，如'可怕'。

It's more powerful because of the intensified 'quite'.

因為強化了 "相當"，所以更有力量。

So be very careful when you use 'quite' because depending on the adjective that you

是以，當你使用 "相當 "時要非常小心，因為根據你的形容詞

And it can be either an intensifier or a mitigator.

而它既可以是強化劑，也可以是緩解劑。

Just as intensifiers, mitigators can be used with comparative adjectives.

和加強詞一樣，減輕詞也可以和比較形容詞一起使用。

For example, 'He's a bit faster than me'.

When you say, “He's a bit faster than me,”

it's less powerful than “He's faster than me.”

So 'a bit' mitigates. It weakens 'faster'.

所以'一點'減輕了。削弱了'快'。

For example, 'This dress is rather nicer than that dress'.

比如說'這件衣服比那件衣服漂亮'。

For example, 'My car is slightly older than your car'.

比如，'我的車比你的車略舊'。

So it's just a little bit older than your car.
