[單字] continual/continuous
上網找continual 跟 continuous的不同
1.https://www.vocabulary.com/articles/chooseyourwords/continual-continuous/
即 continual :start and stop
continuous:nonstop
2.yahoo知識家說webstar字典寫到：
continual be used only to mean "intermittent" and continuous only to mean
"uninterrupted"
所以 continual = intermittent ????????
但在同義反義查詢 不管continual還是continuous
同義詞就是 unbroken unceasing incessant uninterrupted ...這些形容"不斷"的詞彙
而反義詞就是 intermittent recurrent periodic sporadic 這些會"斷"的詞彙
(斷斷續續 週期性發生之類的)
如果照一開始說的 continual是指會斷的話 那不就是continous的反義詞了???
謝謝解惑
