limitless

形容范围、数量或发展空间没有边界、看不到尽头的。

💡 记忆钩子

想象一条边界线被完全擦掉：东西可以一直延伸、数量可以不断增加，连人的野心或可能性也仿佛没有尽头，这就是 limitless 的核心感觉。

📖 中文释义

adj

core 无限的；无边界的

📖 指范围、大小、数量或发展空间没有明确上限，因而可以不断延伸；也常把这种“没有尽头”的感觉用于形容野心、潜力等抽象事物。

💡 常见结构是“limitless + 抽象名词”，例如修饰野心、潜力或可能性；也可以说某人的某种特质是 limitless。不要把它只理解成物理空间很大，它同样常用于抽象概念，而且语气通常比“很大”更强。

Her limitless ambition pushed her to keep taking on bigger challenges.

她无止境的野心促使她不断接受更大的挑战。

The new technology seems to offer limitless possibilities.

这项新技术似乎带来了无限的可能性。
