释义 immediately
      Immediately has been used as a conjunction equivalent to as soon as for well over a hundred years, but it has never really succeeded in establishing itself in American English. Many American commentators have cited it as an error, and our evidence shows that its use by American writers has been rare. In British English, however, it is common and standard:
      Immediately he had finished tea he rose —D. H. Lawrence, Sons and Lovers, 1913
      ... they should always be summoned immediately an accident happens —Alan Blackshaw, Mountaineering, 1965
      I started writing Jill immediately I left Oxford — Philip Larkin, Required Writing, 1983
      See also directly 3.
