联想：adequate意为“足够的”，前面加in-表否定，-ly为副词后缀，所以inadequately就是“不足地”。想象评分时被批注“inadequate（不合格）”，做事不够好。
语域：neutral 常见场景：学术写作、正式报告 该词在日常和正式场合都可使用，但通常更多出现在书面或正式表达中；口语中常换成 not well enough、poorly 等说法。
真正押韵的词：adequately /ˈædɪkwətli/（重音和末尾读音相同）。separately、deliberately、fortunately、immediately 都以 -ately 结尾，但重音在前，只是拼写相似，不押韵；inadvertently 以 inad- 开头，拼写像 inadequately，但读音 /ˌɪnədˈvɜːrtəntli/ 差异很大。
