常見錯誤

❌She smiled excited at the result.
✅She smiled excitedly at the result.
💡Use the adverb (excitedly) after a verb, not the adjective (excited).
❌He was excitedly about the trip.
✅He was excited about the trip.
💡'excitedly' modifies actions, not states. Use the adjective 'excited' after linking verbs like 'be', 'feel', 'seem'.
