易错句子They rented a filthily apartment near the station.
正确表达They rented a filthy apartment near the station.
修饰名词 apartment 要用形容词 filthy;filthily 是副词,不能直接放在名词前作定语。
拼写和读音跟 filthily 只差中间几个字母(fif- 对 filθ-),但 fifthly 是逐条列举时用的序数副词“第五点”,跟“脏”毫无关系。文章在分条陈述时用 fifthly,描写污秽状态时才用 filthily。
两者都能译成“下流地、恶劣地”,但 foully 侧重手段卑鄙或体育比赛中犯规,常与 murder、play 等动词搭配;filthily 强调的是“脏”——可以是实物污秽,也可以是语言淫秽,字面“污”的色彩更重。
dirtily 多指实物表面沾了泥土、灰尘,语气较中性;filthily 程度更重,常指令人作呕的污秽或下流言语。英式英语里 filthily 还可直接表示“下流地”,dirtily 没有这一层意思。
