Needless意思
"Needless" 是一個英語形容詞,它的意思是沒有必要的、不需要的、多餘的。這個單詞通常用來描述那些沒有實際用途或價值的事物、行為或情況。例如:
- "The manager thought the meeting was needless and decided to cancel it." (經理認為會議沒有必要,決定取消。)
- "Adding more sugar to the cake would be needless; it's already sweet enough." (在蛋糕里添加更多的糖是沒必要的,它已經夠甜了。)
- "The committee concluded that the new regulations were needless and would only create more bureaucracy." (委員會認為新的規定是沒有必要的,只會增加官僚主義。)
在口語中,"needless to say" 是一個常用的短語,意思是「不必說」、「顯然」,用來引出不言自明的事實或結論。例如:
- "The team worked hard, and needless to say, they won the game." (團隊努力工作,當然,他們贏得了比賽。)
- "He is the most experienced member of the team, needless to say, he will lead the project." (他是團隊裡經驗最豐富的成員,當然,他將領導這個項目。)
需要注意的是,"needless" 和 "needful" 意思不同。"Needful" 是一個形容詞,意思是「必要的」、「需要的」,與 "needless" 相反。
