significantly

副词，表示某种变化、差异或程度达到明显而重要的地步。

💡 记忆钩子

把变化想成刻度条明显向前跳了一大格：事情不是只变了一点，而是“显著地”变了；因此它常用来强调进步、增加、减少或差异很明显。

📝 学习建议

先掌握“明显地、显著地”这一核心意思，再注意它有时也可表示“重要地”，不要一看到它就机械地译成“重要地”。

📖 中文释义

adv

core 显著地；明显地

📖 表示变化、差异或程度明显到值得特别注意，常用于说明某人的表现改善、数量增加或问题减少。它的核心画面是刻度条一下子跳过了较大的一格，而不是只发生了细微变化。

💡 常用结构是“significantly + 动词”或“动词 + significantly”，例如“显著改善”“显著增加”；在比较或数据语境中也常修饰差异的程度。它通常强调可观察、可说明的幅度，不等同于口语中泛泛的“很”。中文里不要把它稳定地译成“重要地”，只有在强调影响或意义时才可能接近这个意思。
