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。
用於引述或回應他人觀點,帶有輕微的對比或反駁意味。 EN: "You said it would be easy." "Contrarily, I found it quite challenging." 翻譯: 「你說這會很簡單。」「恰恰相反,我覺得相當有挑戰性。」
EN:A: "Everyone loves that movie." B: "Well, contrarily, I thought it was boring."
翻譯:A:「大家都愛那部電影。」 B:「嗯,相反地,我覺得它很無聊。」
在對話中強調對比,使自己的立場更突出,常與「but」或「however」連用。 EN: "I know you think he's reliable. Contrarily, I've had nothing but problems with him." 翻譯: "我知道你認為他很可靠。但相反地,我跟他打交道只有問題。"
EN:"She seems very outgoing. Contrarily, in private, she's quite shy."
翻譯:"她看起來非常外向。相反地,私下裡她相當害羞。"
作為思考時的停頓用詞,引出一個相反的觀點或細微調整。 EN: "The plan is good... contrarily, we might need more time to execute it." 翻譯: "這個計劃不錯…不過反過來說,我們可能需要更多時間來執行。"
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。

×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。
