使用時，請根據後接的詞性（名詞或形容詞/動詞）來選擇正確的 blatant 或 blatantly。
blatant vs obvious
「blatant」強調行為或錯誤是「明目張膽、厚顏無恥」的，帶有強烈的負面道德譴責意味；「obvious」則較中性，僅指「明顯、清楚易見」的事實或狀況。
blatant vs flagrant
兩者都指「公然的、明目張膽的」，常可互換。細微差別在於「blatant」更側重於行為的「顯而易見、不加掩飾」；「flagrant」則更強調對規則、法律或道德的「公然藐視與冒犯」。
blatant vs conspicuous
「blatant」幾乎只用於負面事物，帶有譴責意味；「conspicuous」為中性詞，僅指「顯眼的、引人注目的」，可用於正面、中性或負面情境。
用於引述他人或公眾的批評，表示你認為該批評是明顯且不公的。 EN: "They said my work was sloppy, which is just blatant nonsense." 翻譯: "他們說我的工作很馬虎，這根本是明顯的胡說八道。"
EN:"Calling him lazy is a blatant misrepresentation of his efforts."
翻譯:"說他懶惰，是對他付出的明顯曲解。"
在對話中加強語氣，強調某種行為或事實的明顯程度，常帶有強烈的不滿或驚訝。 EN: "That was a blatant lie, and everyone knew it." 翻譯: "那根本是明目張膽的謊言，而且大家都知道。"
EN:"It's a blatant violation of the rules, and they're not even trying to hide it."
翻譯:"這明顯違反了規定，而且他們甚至沒想隱藏。"
在組織想法或表達強烈情緒時，作為短暫停頓後的強調詞，通常會拉長發音或加重語氣。 EN: "It was just... blatant. I couldn't believe what I was seeing." 翻譯: "那簡直是... 明目張膽。我簡直不敢相信我看到的。"
EN:"The favoritism here is so... blatant. It's demoralizing."
翻譯:"這裡的偏袒實在太... 明顯了。很打擊士氣。"
正式寫作注意：在學術或正式商業寫作中，應避免使用帶有強烈情緒的「blatant」，改用更中性的詞彙如 "obvious", "evident", "clear", 或 "flagrant"（後者仍帶負面但較正式）。

×He made a blatant mistake in the report.
✓He made a blatant error in the report.
While 'mistake' and 'error' are often interchangeable, 'blatant' more naturally collocates with nouns implying a violation of rules, ethics, or obviousness, such as 'error', 'lie', 'disregard', or 'violation'. 'Blatant mistake' is less idiomatic.
×It was a very blatant advertisement.
✓It was a blatant advertisement.
'Blatant' itself carries the meaning of 'very obvious' or 'unashamedly conspicuous'. Using 'very' with it is redundant and weakens the impact. Strong adjectives like 'blatant', 'obvious', or 'clear' usually don't need intensifiers.
×She was blatant to ignore the safety rules.
✓It was blatant of her to ignore the safety rules. / Her disregard for the safety rules was blatant.
'Blatant' is primarily an adjective describing a thing, action, or quality (e.g., a lie, disregard, violation), not directly a person's state of being. The correct structure is 'It was blatant of [someone] to...' or using 'blatant' to modify a noun representing the action/attitude.
×The difference between the two designs is blatant.
✓The difference between the two designs is obvious.
'Blatant' implies a negative, offensive, or shameless obviousness, often related to bad behavior. For neutral or simple obviousness (like a visible difference), 'obvious', 'clear', or 'apparent' is more appropriate.
×He spoke with a blatant voice.
✓He spoke in a blatant manner. / His bias was blatant in his speech.
'Blatant' does not modify physical attributes like 'voice'. It describes the nature of an action, behavior, or fact. The error often comes from directly translating from the learner's native language.
