Decreasing意思
"Decreasing" 是一個動名詞或現在分詞,它來源於動詞 "decrease",意為「減少,減小」。當用作名詞時,"decreasing" 通常指的是一個正在進行的動作或過程,即「減少的過程」。
在英語中,"decreasing" 可以用來描述數量、大小、強度、頻率等任何減少或下降的情況。例如:
- 數量上的減少:The population of the town has been decreasing over the past few years.
- 尺寸或大小的減小:The company is planning to decrease the size of its workforce.
- 強度的減弱:The pain in my head is decreasing.
- 頻率的降低:The number of accidents has been decreasing since the new safety measures were implemented.
在句子中,"decreasing" 通常用作謂語動詞,描述主語的動作或狀態。它也可以用作定語,修飾名詞,或者作為狀語,描述動作發生時的背景或情況。
請注意,"decreasing" 是一個主動語態的詞,表示動作正在進行或已經發生。如果需要表達被動語態,即動作被施加於某物上,可以使用 "decreased" 或 "being decreased"。例如:
- The price has been decreased. (價格已經被降低了。)
- The production is being decreased to match the lower demand. (產量正在被減少以適應較低的需求。)
