用法說明
How is "Quickly" different from similar structures?What usage mistakes are common with "Quickly"?
quickly doing vs quickly to do
- quickly doing 通常描述一個已經在進行或習慣性的快速動作，強調動作的狀態或方式。
- quickly to do 則較為少見且不自然，因為
quickly作為副詞修飾動詞時，通常不直接與不定詞標記to連用。 - 若要表達「為了...目的而快速做某事」，更自然的說法是將
quickly放在動詞前或後，例如to do something quickly或to quickly do something。 - 在正式寫作中，有時會避免將
quickly放在to和動詞之間（split infinitive），但口語中常見。 EN: She finished the report quickly to meet the deadline. 翻譯: 她為了趕上截止日期，很快地完成了報告。
EN:He learned to type quickly for his new job.
翻譯:他為了新工作學會了快速打字。
總結建議
建議使用 quickly + V 或 V + quickly 的結構，避免直接使用 quickly to + V 這種不自然的組合。

常見錯誤
What are common mistakes with "Quickly"?Which "Quickly" sentences look correct but are wrong?
×He runs quick.
✓He runs quickly.
在修飾動詞（如 runs）時，必須使用副詞 quickly，而不是形容詞 quick。形容詞用於修飾名詞，副詞用於修飾動詞、形容詞或其他副詞。
×He quickly ran to the store.
✓He ran to the store quickly.
副詞 quickly 通常置於句尾，以強調動作的方式。置於動詞前雖然文法正確，但聽起來較不自然，是常見的學習者錯誤。
×The car is quickly.
✓The car is quick.
在 be 動詞（is, am, are）後面，應使用形容詞 quick 來描述主語的狀態或特性，而不是副詞 quickly。副詞 quickly 用於描述動作如何進行。
×He speaks English very quicklyly.
✓He speaks English very quickly.
副詞 quickly 已經是完整形式，不需要再加上 -ly 後綴。重複添加 -ly 是常見的拼字錯誤。
×We need to decide quick.
✓We need to decide quickly.
動詞 decide 需要副詞來修飾，因此應使用 quickly。在非正式口語中，有時會用形容詞 quick 代替副詞，但在正式寫作和標準用法中應避免。
×She quick finished her meal.
✓She quickly finished her meal.
副詞 quickly 應置於動詞 finished 之前，以修飾該動作。將形容詞 quick 直接放在動詞前是錯誤的。
