用法說明

How is "Contrarily" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Contrarily"?

contrarily doing vs contrarily to do

  • contrarily doing 通常用於描述一種習慣性或經常性的、與預期相反的動作或狀態,強調一種持續的、內在的對立傾向。
  • contrarily to do 則更常指在一個特定情境或決定中,選擇了與預期相反的行動,強調一次性的、具體的對立選擇。
  • 在表示「傾向於做相反的事」時,兩者有時可互換,但 contrarily doing 的語氣更為抽象和概括。 EN: He contrarily insisted on walking in the rain, despite having an umbrella. 翻譯: 儘管有傘,他卻偏偏堅持要在雨中行走。

EN:She would contrarily to choose the hardest path whenever given an option.

翻譯:每當有選擇時,她反而會偏偏挑最難走的路。

總結建議

在大多數正式寫作中,使用 "contrarily to + V" 來表達具體的相反選擇更為清晰,而 "contrarily doing" 則適合描述一種性格上的對立傾向。

易混淆對比

What is the difference between "Contrarily" and similar words?How to choose "Contrarily" vs alternatives?

contrarily vs conversely

「contrarily」強調對立或故意作對的態度,語氣較強;「conversely」則中性陳述邏輯上的相反關係,常用於論述。

contrarily vs oppositely

「contrarily」常用作句子副詞,修飾整個陳述;「oppositely」極少使用,通常只描述物理位置或方向相反。

contrarily vs on the contrary

「contrarily」是副詞,可置於句中多個位置;「on the contrary」是固定副詞片語,通常用於直接反駁前文,語氣更強。

EN:"She seems very outgoing. Contrarily, in private, she's quite shy."

EN:"He's not a bad person. Contrarily... he's just very misunderstood."

翻譯:"他不是壞人。相反地…他只是被誤解得很深。"

正式寫作注意:在正式或學術寫作中,建議使用「however」、「on the contrary」或「conversely」來替代「contrarily」,後者在口語中更為自然,在書面語中可能顯得有些生硬或刻意。

常見錯誤

What are common mistakes with "Contrarily"?Which "Contrarily" sentences look correct but are wrong?

×He has a contrarily personality.

He has a contrary personality.

「contrarily」是副詞,不能修飾名詞「personality」。修飾名詞應使用形容詞「contrary」。

×Contrarily he agreed, he refused to help.

Contrary to what he said, he refused to help.

「contrarily」通常不直接引導一個與先前陳述相反的從句。表達「與...相反」的對比概念時,應使用「contrary to + noun/noun phrase」或「on the contrary」。

×I'm not tired. Contrarily, I'm full of energy.

I'm not tired. On the contrary, I'm full of energy.

在直接否定前一句話並提出完全相反的觀點時,習慣使用「On the contrary」作為轉折語。「Contrarily」更常描述一種「故意作對」或「與預期相悖」的行為方式。

×The results were contrarily positive.

The results were unexpectedly positive.

「contrarily」的核心含義是「故意地對著幹」或「執拗地」,而非單純的「出乎意料」。表達「出乎意料」應使用「unexpectedly」或「surprisingly」。

×He acted contrarly to the instructions.

He acted contrarily to the instructions.

常見拼寫錯誤,漏掉了「i」。正確拼寫為「contrarily」,源自形容詞「contrary」加上副詞後綴「-ly」。

×He is a person who always acts contrarily and opposite to others.

He is a person who always acts contrarily.

「contrarily」本身已包含「故意採取相反行動」的意思,加上「and opposite to others」顯得冗餘。
