文法句型

strongly + past participle (strongly built/made/constructed/fixed)

strongly + adjective (strongly resistant)

用法筆記

Mainly pairs with past participles describing construction or attachment — built, made, constructed, fixed, fastened, reinforced. Not used for abstract strength in this sense. The rejected Oxford sense ('easy to notice', as in smell strongly) is covered by 'strongly' only in narrow contexts like taste and smell; learners should use 'distinctly' or 'noticeably' instead.

常見錯誤

❌The rope strongly holds the boat.
✅The rope is strongly made and holds the boat securely.
💡'strongly' does not directly modify a present-tense action verb; use it with a past participle describing the object's construction.
