conventionally vs usually

"Conventionally" 是副詞，用來修飾動詞、形容詞或其他副詞，不能直接修飾名詞。修飾名詞（如 person）時應使用形容詞 "conventional"。
×Conventionally, the meeting is held it in the main hall.
✓The meeting is conventionally held in the main hall.
副詞 "conventionally" 通常放在它所修飾的主要動詞（如 held）之前，或放在助動詞（如 is）與主要動詞之間。句子開頭的 "Conventionally" 雖然語法正確，但可能使句子焦點模糊，更自然的用法是將其置於動詞附近。原句中的 "it" 也是多餘的。
×Conventionally, our family eats mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
✓Traditionally, our family eats mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
"Conventionally" 強調的是根據普遍接受的做法、標準或協議，常與程序、方法或設計相關。"Traditionally" 則強調長期以來的習俗、信仰或代代相傳的實踐，更適合描述文化或家庭習俗。描述家庭節日習俗應使用 "traditionally"。
×It is conventionally always done this way.
✓It is conventionally done this way.
"Conventionally" 本身已含有「通常、習慣上」的頻率意義，與 "always"（總是）同時使用會造成語意重複或矛盾。應刪除 "always"，或根據語意選用其一。
×conventionly, conventionaly
✓conventionally
常見的拼寫錯誤是漏掉形容詞 "conventional" 中的 "al"，或將副詞字尾 "-ally" 誤拼為 "-ly" 或 "-aly"。正確拼寫是從形容詞 "conventional" 加上 "-ly" 構成副詞 "conventionally"。
