unlimited + [food noun] for all-you-can-eat context

同義詞
  • endless

    Focuses on continuous duration rather than quantity — 'endless waiting' suggests it keeps going, not just that there is no cap.

  • limitless

    Very close in meaning, but slightly more poetic or dramatic; 'limitless sky' feels grander than 'unlimited sky'.

  • infinite

    Suggests something so vast it cannot be measured or imagined; more mathematical or spiritual in tone.

  • unrestricted

    Emphasizes the absence of rules or controls rather than quantity — 'unrestricted access' means no permission needed.

反義詞
  • limited

    Direct opposite — there is a fixed cap on amount or extent.

  • restricted

    Emphasizes control or rules that limit what you can do.

  • finite

    Has a clear end or boundary; more technical or scientific.

unlimited + [plural noun]

be + unlimited

用法筆記

Frequently used with uncountable nouns related to resources or consumption (data, access, time, power, food, refills). Sounds unnatural with individual countable items — 'unlimited apples' is odd, whereas 'unlimited refills of soda' is natural because refills refer to the ongoing service, not the individual items.

常見錯誤

The amusement park offers unlimited rides after 6 PM.
The amusement park offers unlimited access to rides after 6 PM.
💡'rides' (countable events) sounds unnatural; pair unlimited with 'access' or a service noun instead.
She has unlimited friends.
She has an unlimited number of followers on social media.
💡Unlimited does not naturally describe a specific countable set of people; use 'countless' or 'an unlimited number of' instead.

沒有任何保留或例外的

If something such as support, trust, or authority is unlimited, it is complete and total — given or offered without any hidden conditions, restrictions, or exceptions.

unlimited + support for unconditional commitment

The ambassador was given unlimited authority to negotiate with the other government.

這位大使被賦予全權,可與另一方政府進行談判。

unlimited + authority for formal/legal context

同義詞
  • unconditional

    Stronger emphasis on the absence of conditions; often used with 'love' or 'support'.

  • absolute

    Emphasizes completeness and the idea that nothing can overrule it; 'absolute power' cannot be challenged.

  • unrestricted

    Also works in this sense but focuses on lack of rules rather than lack of conditions.

  • total

    Less formal and more conversational; 'total support' is common in everyday speech.

反義詞
  • conditional

    Given only if certain conditions are met — the direct opposite.

  • qualified

    Limited or modified by exceptions or reservations.

  • restricted

    Bound by rules or limitations.

文法句型

unlimited + [abstract noun: support/trust/love/authority]

用法筆記

Restricted to abstract nouns that describe commitment or control: support, trust, love, loyalty, authority, power. Unlike sense 1, this sense cannot describe physical quantities (data, food, time). Distinguish from sense 1 (NO LIMIT) by checking whether the noun is a physical resource — if yes, it is sense 1.

常見錯誤

The contract gives us unlimited authority to use the office printer.
The contract gives us unlimited access to the office printer.
💡Using 'authority' for a small physical resource confuses sense 2 (abstract commitment) with sense 1 (quantity/access).
