词语用法

adv. (副词)

1. just用作副词时可修饰动态动词、静态动词或系表结构,置于实义动词之前,助动词、情态动词或系动词之后。
2. just作“刚刚”解时,如时间较短(a moment ago),英式英语中动词用现在完成时,美式英语中动词用一般过去时,有时也可用一般现在时。如时间稍长(a short time ago),无论英美语均用一般过去时。作“很快”“一会儿”(very soon)解时,可用现在时或将来进行时。just now作“刚才”解时动词用一般过去时; 作“现在”“此刻”解时动词用一般现在时或现在进行时; 作“立刻”“马上”解时动词用现在进行时、一般将来时或将来进行时。
3. just作“恰好,正是”解时,一般不用于否定句,表示此意的否定句要用not quite。just也可作“刚好,勉强地,好容易才…,仅仅”等解,前面可加only。在非正式文体中, just可作“非常,简直,太”解。just可与疑问副词或疑问代词连用,以加强疑问效果,意为“究竟,到底”。just还可用在表示将来动作的进行时、将来时的句中,作“就要,正要”解。

adj. (形容词)

1. just用作形容词时的基本意思是“正义的,公正的”,指在社会生活中严格按照公正合理的客观标准,不受个人感情的影响,判定某事是合理合法的。just还可作“合理的,有充分根据的”解。
2. just在句中可作定语或表语。

词义辨析

adv. (副词)

just not, not just

• 这两个同构异序的短语意思并不相同:just not作“差一点儿不,根本不”解,而not just...(but)的意思是“不仅…(还…)”。 试比较:
• He is not just tall, but strong.
• 他不仅个子高,身体还壮。
• He is just not as tall as his brother.
• 他差一点就和他的哥哥一般高了。

just, justly

• justly是由just(形容词)派生来的副词,作“公正地,正当地”解。不能把它和just(副词)混淆。试比较:
• Our representative has just spoken.
• 我们的代表刚发了言。
• He has spoken justly.
• 他讲得有理。

impartial，just，fair，neutral，objective

• 这些形容词均有“公正的、公平的、不偏不倚的”之意。
• impartial侧重对任何人或任何一方没有成见或偏袒。
• just多用于庄重场合，指不受个人利益得失或感情倾向的影响，侧重按照公认的准则或标准处理问题。
• fair普通常用词，指不偏不倚地对待人和物，侧重不受个人感情、偏见或利益所影响。
• neutral强调持中立态度，不偏袒任何一方，甚至不作最后的裁决。
• objective着重客观、真实，不为个人偏见、兴趣、感情或看法所左右。

very，right，just

• 三者都含有“正好；就是”之意。
• very是形容词，用来修饰名词，位于the, this，my等限定词后。
• right作副词，用来修饰谓语（常为动词be）或作状语的介词短语等，须放在the, this，my等限定词之前。
• just作副词与right类似。

常见错误

adv. (副词)

1. 这不是他所很想要的。

   误 It is just not what he wanted.

   正 It is not quite what he wanted.

   析 just作“恰好,正是”解时,一般不用于否定句,表示此意的否定句要用not quite。

词源解说

• ☆ 1382年进入英语，直接源自古法语的just；最初源自古典拉丁语的justus，意为正直的，公平的。
