| 词组 | loud, loudly |
| 释义 | loud, loudly Loud is most familiar as an adjective, but it is also an established adverb, as many commentators have noted. Its adverbial uses are more limited than those of loudly; it always follows the verb that it modifies, and it occurs chiefly with only a few simple and familiar verbs: • ... if he talks loud and is rude to the waiters —Frank Swinnerton, Tokefield Papers, 1949 • ... and who screams loudest —A. C. Spectorsky, The Exurbanites, 1955 • ... those who shout loudest against the draft —Malcolm S. Forbes, Forbes, 1 Dec. 1970 • ... cheering as loud as their lungs would allow —R. W. Apple, Jr., N. Y. Times, 30 July 1981 Loudly could be substituted in any of the above passages ("most loudly" for "loudest") and is the adverb of choice with most other verbs and in most other contexts: • ... many loudly proclaimed their conviction — George V. Rogers, New England Galaxy, Fall 1970 • A clock on the wall ticked loudly —Daphne du Mau-rier, Ladies' Home Jour., August 1971 • ... his loudly amplified guitar —Pete Welding, Rolling Stone, 11 May 1972 • ... a raucous company of sightseers comes loudly down the quay —Jan Morris, N. Y. Times Mag., 20 July 1975 • ... are loudly proud of their gift for understatement —Herb Caen, Architectural Digest, June 1986 |
