詞義辨析obviously, apparently, evidently

　　最近忙著改版《雅思詞匯精選》，要把劍6和機經里的一些詞匯補充進去，于是這幾個禮拜又重新補起了詞匯的功課。平時一直鼓動大家把一些感覺不錯的詞放到像朗文、劍橋等國外出版的詞典里去確認一下exact meaning，盡量保證先正確的理解，再正確的使用，還要正確的發音，這次輪到我自己了，只不過每天100個詞的進度。在編寫新的詞條的時候，有些詞的確讓我吃驚不小，因為我以往的理解還是太多的受到了中文的影響，舉個例子，obvious, apparent, evident三個詞都是明顯的，而一旦變成副詞obviously, apprently, evidently區別就很大了，要謹慎使用。

　　Obviouslyused to mean that a fact can easily be noticed or understood.

　　Apparently①used to say that you have heard that something is true, although you are not completely sure about it ② according to the way someone looks or a situation appears, although you cannot be sure.

　　Evidentlyused to say that something is true because you can see that it is true.

　　從上面可以看出，Obviously是依然是最地道的明顯，跟形容詞形式意思一樣，evidently雖然也是這個意思，但《劍橋高級學習者詞典》指出此詞略微正式，與obvious相比，it is usually better to choose the word obvious，因此副詞也比較正式。

　　最麻煩的要數apparently，已經跟apparent有較大區別了，里面包含著you cannot be sure的意思，所以中文的正確意思應該是看似，據說，這一點就連我認為國內最棒的英漢詞典陸谷孫老先生編的《英漢大辭典》里也找不到的。比如說劍3中Test 3 閱讀Passage 3 講環境和情緒的文章里有一句話，However, this apparently does not just depend on the temperature. 應該理解為不過看來這不僅僅取決于氣溫。還有同樣是劍3 Test 2聽力中的Section 3 講員工選拔中有一句話，The idea is actually quite old. Apparently they were used by the ancient Chinese for picking out clerks and civil servants. Apprently應該翻譯成據說。

　　所以還是那句話，一天拿出一點點時間，去確認5個你覺得挺不錯的詞匯，其實很多詞匯我們當時背的似是而非，如果3個月的時間搞定450個好詞，考試的時候起碼詞匯會有很出色的表現的。
