thankfully/ˈθæŋkfʊli, -f(ə)li/adv. 1 in a thankful manner 感谢地，感激地 2 (qualifying a whole sentence 限定整个句子) disp. let us be thankful; fortunately [异议]值得感谢(庆幸)的是，幸亏 thankfully, nobody was hurt 幸亏没有人受伤 [Old English thancfullice (as THANKFUL, -LY2)]■ Usage 用法说明 The use of thankfully in sense 2 is extremely common, but it is still considered incorrect by some people. The main reason is that other such adverbs, e.g. regrettably, fortunately, etc., can be converted to the form it is regrettable, it is fortunate, etc., but thankfully converts to one is thankful (that). Like hopefully, thankfully first became popular in America in the 1960s, and its use is also best restricted to informal contexts. 释义 2 中 thankfully 的用法是很普遍的，不过有些人仍认为这是不正确的用法。主要理由是，其他这类副词如 regrettably ， fortunately 等可以转化成 it is regrettable ， it is fortunate 等形式，而 thankfully 只能转化成 one is thankful (that) 。像 hopefully 一样， thankfully 最早流行于 20 世纪 60 年代的美国，而且其用法也最好限于非正式的上下文。 |
