词义辨析

adv. (副词)

indeed, really, truly

• 这三个词都可表示“真正地”。其区别在于:indeed多用于肯定对方的话或加强自己的话; really多用于进一步说服对方,或表示惊奇,或表示含蓄的怀疑; 而truly多用于强调事物的真实性。例如:
• You are right.It is indeed a difficult problem.你说得对,这真是一道难题。
• Do you really want to go?你真要去吗?
• It is truly hot.今天真热。

indeed，really，truly，actually

• 这些副词均有“确实地、真正地”之意。
• indeed一般用于肯定或证实对方所说的话，多承接前言，也用来加强或肯定自己说话的语气。
• really主要用于强调与事实或现实不相违背，也可表示不快、惊奇或某种含蓄的怀疑。
• truly强调客观存在的真实性，没有任何虚假。
• actually侧重于实际的事，而不是凭空想象或推测的事。

常见错误

adv. (副词)

1. 我的确非常高兴收到你的信。

   误 I was pleased indeed to get your letter.

   正 I was very pleased indeed to get your letter.

   析 indeed可跟在“very+形容词或副词”后面以加强语气,表示“真的”“的确很…”,其中的very不能省略。
