歡迎回到 YouTube 的 EnglishClass101.com 頻道。
My name is Alisha, and today I'm going to talk about the difference between "really" and “very.”
我是 Alisha,今天我要說「really」和「very」的不同。
These are sometimes confused, or it's difficult to know when you should use really or when
有時候會不清楚它們的用法,或很難知道哪時候你們該用到 really 或是
you should use very.
very。
So today I'm going to give a quick explanation that hopefully can help you decide when to
所以今天我要給一個概要的講解,希望可以幫助你們推測哪
use really and when to use very.
時候要用 really 和 very 。
So let's start!
那我們開始囉!
Okay, first, there's one thing that's common, one thing that both of these do, really and
第一點,它們都有一個共通點,兩個都有相同含意,
very are both used to add intensity or to add emphasis to what you're saying.
really 和 very 就是用來增強或是強調你們的語調。
So both of them have the same effect.
它們都有一樣的影響力。
Okay!
好!
So, but let's start with really.
不過我們先看 really 。
Really is used to modify, so, to add emphasis, to change verbs.
Really 是用來修飾、強調、並且修飾動詞。
We also use really to modify adjectives and adverbs, so a few examples here, this sentence,
我們也可以用 really 來修飾形容詞以及副詞,這邊有幾個例子,第一個例句:
You're really funny.
你真的很 (really) 有趣。
So funny is an adjective, we use really before the adjective to modify, so this gives emphasis
有趣 funny 是一個形容詞,在形容詞前面,我們用 really 來修飾它,所以這個 really 強調
to the word funny.
了 funny 這個字。
Then we have this word fast, this is an adverb, in this sentence, He runs really fast.
然後在這句子裡,我們有快速 fast 這個副詞,他跑得非常 (really) 快。
We add really to show he runs really fast and emphasizes the speed at which he runs.
我們用 really 來形容他跑得有多快,來強調他跑得速度。
Finally, I have the adjective tired, I'm really tired.
最後一個例句,我這邊用到累 tired 這個形容詞:我真的很 (really) 累。
So we emphasize tired by placing really before the adjective.
我們這邊在形容詞 tired 的前面放上 really ,來強調累的程度。
So we can use really to modify verbs, and we can use it to modify adjectives.
我們可以用 really 來修飾動詞,然後我們也可用它來修飾形容詞。
Okay, we'll talk a little bit more about the verbs part a little bit later.
我們等一下會再提到點修飾動詞的這個部分。
Okay, let's go on to very, though.
我們接下來看看 very 。
So very is used to modify adjectives and adverbs only, we cannot use very to modify verbs,
請記得 very 是用來修飾形容詞和副詞,我們不可以用
so please be careful.
它來修飾動詞,
You cannot use this with a verb, we'll see this in just a moment.
你們不可以把這個字和動詞放一起,我們等一下可以看一些例句。
For me, however, a recommendation, I tend to use very more in negative sentences, I
對我而言,我的建議是,我比較會在否定句子中用到 very ,我
don't use really so much when I'm making a negative statement.
不會常常在否定陳述的句子中用到 really 這個字。
So let's look at a few examples.
我們來看看幾個例句。
First, this sandwich is very good.
第一個例子:這個三明治非常 (very) 好吃。
So good is my adjectives here, so I use very to modify it.
在這邊的 good 是形容詞,所以我用 very 來修飾它。
Yes, I can use really here as well.
當然,我也可以用 really 在這一句中。
This sandwich is really good is also a correct sentence.
這個三明治真的很 (really) 好吃,這句子是正確的。
The next one, you're not very funny.
下一個例子:你不是很 (very) 趣,
so here's a negative that I was talking about.
所以這裡有我剛剛談到的:一個否定字。
Funny is the adjective in this sentence, and saying not very is a negative statement.
在這個句子中,有趣 funny 是形容詞,而 not very 是否定的陳述。
You can say, you're not really funny, but to me, it sounds a bit more natural to say,
你們可以說,你不是真得很 (really) 有趣;但對我來講,這句聽起來更順口,
you're not very funny.
你不是很 (very) 有趣。
Here's one more example, he doesn't run very fast.
還有一個例句:他跑得不是非常 (very) 快。
So again, I have the adverb fast here with very, and my negative, so he doesn't run very
這邊我有一個快 fast 副詞在 very 後面,然後還有一個否定詞 doesn't ,所以他跑得沒
fast emphasizes that he is not a fast runner.
很快, very 強調他不是一個很快地跑者。
Okay, and finally, they're very rich.
最後一個例句:他們很 (very) 有錢。
This one uses an adjective rich, they're very rich.
這邊用的是一個形容詞 rich 富有,他們非常 (very) 有錢。
We can say they're really rich, both are correct.
我們可以說他們非常 (really) 有錢,這兩句都是正確的用法。
So let's take a look at some example sentences, and in particular, I want to point out a few
我們再來看幾個例句,我還特別想要點出幾個
cases where we can use really with verbs as I talked about here.
點,我們可以用動詞搭配 really 。
So let's take a look, let's look at the first sentence.
我們一起來看看第一個例句:
The sentence here is, they_____ like vacationing in France.
他們 ________ 喜歡到法國旅行。
So here I have the verb like, we know that really is only used to modify verbs, we cannot
這邊我有一個動詞 like 喜歡,我們知道 really 只被用來修飾動詞,我們不可以
use very to modify verbs, therefore the correct answer here is really.
用 very 來修飾動詞,所以正確的答案是: really 。
They really like vacationing in France.
他們真的很 (really) 喜歡去法國度假。
Ok, the next sentence.
下一個例句:
My schedule is _____ busy.
我的行程有 ________ 滿。
We see that busy is an adjective.
我們有 busy 這個形容詞。
My schedule is _____ busy.
我的行程有 ________ 滿。
So really and very are both correct.
所以 really 和 very 都是正確的用法。
I'm really busy.
我真的很 (really) 忙。
I'm sorry.
不好意思,我說錯了。
My schedule is really busy, or my schedule is very busy.
我的行程真的 (really) 有點滿,或是我的行程真的很 (very) 滿。
Both of these are correct.
兩個句子都是對的。
In the next sentence, That restaurant wasn't ______ good.
下一個例句:那間餐廳不 ________ 很好。
So I mentioned that this one, very, is something I tend to use more in negative patterns, so
所以我這邊用到 very ,我想要用一個較否定的方式,所以
here we have a negative, we have the negative "wasn't" in this sentence.
這句子中,我們有一個否定字 wasn't。
So, that restaurant wasn't very good sounds nice.
這間餐廳不是很 (very) 好吃,用 very 聽起來很好。
Okay, the next sentence, it's _____ rainy today.
下一個例句是:這 ______ 毛毛雨。
So rainy, we have an adjective here, it's rainy, that means we can use really or very
這邊 rainy 多雨的為形容詞,毛毛雨,這邊我們可以用 really 或是 very ,
also, it's a positive statement here.
因為這是一個正面的陳述句。
Okay!
好了!
The next expression, your boss seems _______ angry with you again.
下一個表達方式:你的老闆好像又 ______ 對你生氣。
Here's an adjective, and the sentence, the statement is a positive statement, so again,
這句子中有一個形容詞 angry 生氣的,而這一句是正面的陳述,
we can use either really or very.
這個句子我們可以用 really 或是 very 。
Okay, let's go to the next one.
我們來看看下一個例子:
She ______ eats a lot.
她 _____ 吃很多。
Here we have the verb eats, She ______ eats; because it's a verb, we know we can only use
這邊我們有動詞 eats 吃,她 ______ 吃;因為這是一個動詞,我們知道這邊就只能用
really in this situation.
really 這個字。
So, she really eats a lot is the correct sentence here.
她真的很 (really) 會吃,這就是正確的句型。
Okay, similar, we have, he _____ hates cats.
這邊還有一個類似的句型:他 ________ 討厭貓咪。
So hates is our verb here, again, the same rule applies, we can only use really with
這邊 hates 討厭是動詞,所以這句運用同樣一個規則,我們只能用 really 來修飾
verbs, so really is the correct answer.
動詞,所以 really 是正確的答案。
He really hates cats.
他真的很 (really) 討厭貓咪。
Okay, one more.
再來一個例句:
I _____ hope we can take...
我 _______ 希望我們可以拿...
I'm sorry!
對不起,我說錯了!
I _____ hope we can catch up soon!
我 _______ 希望我們之後可以很快地再見面!
So once more, our verb is hope, I hope.
再一次地,動詞是 hope ,我希望。
We're emphasizing, I really hope.
我們在強調,我真的 (really) 希望。
So these three all have the same pattern, they're all modifying a verb here.
這三個例句都有同樣的句構,這邊它們都是在修飾動詞。
Okay!
好了!
Final one.
最後一個例句:
This is _____ easy.
這個 ______ 簡單。
So easy is an adjective, we can use really or very in this case.
easy 簡單是一個形容詞,這一個例句我們可以用 really 或是 very 。
This is really easy, or this is very easy, both are correct in this case.
這個真的很 (really) 簡單,或是這個真的非常 (very) 簡單,這兩個都是正確的。
Alright!
好了!
So that's a quick overview of when to use really and when to use very.
這是一個概要的介紹哪時候要用到 really 和 very 。
Please remember, you can only use really in front of a verb, and if you're making a negative
請記得,你們只能用 really 來修飾動詞;如果你們說一句否定
statement, try to use very instead of really, it'll sound a little bit more natural.
陳述,就要用 very 不是用 really ,這樣的句型聽起來會比較順耳的。
