   提到“完全”、“彻底”,你的脑海中是否只会闪现all、completely、entirely 一类的单词?其实外国的小伙伴们还有更丰富的词汇,来表达他们强烈的语气呢~


  1. Every inch
  不说 all,你也可以用every inch(每一寸)来表示“完完全全地,整个地”。
  例:With his new suit on, he looks every inch a businessman.
  穿上新西装,他看上去完全是个商人了。
  2. Through and through
  Through本身有“完全的”、“彻底的”意思, through and through就更能加强这种语气了。
  例:I know him through and through, and he would never do such a cowardly thing.
  我对他十分了解,他绝不会这么懦弱。
  3. Root and branch
  这个短语把树根和树杈都说全了,用来形容“彻彻底底”再合适不过了。
  例:The laws were reformed root and branch.
  法律法规经历了彻底的改革。
  4. To the core 1
  Core有“核心”之意,to the core则表示“彻底”、“十足”。
  例:Her family is English to the core.
  她家都是地道的英国人。
  5. From head to toe
  除了用树根树杈来描述“全部”,歪果仁还会用上面这个短语来表示“全身”、“从头到脚”,也可以用来形容“彻头彻尾”。
  例:I admire them from head to toe!
  我对他们佩服得五体投地!

n.中心;核心;(苹果、梨等果实的)果心
  • We didn't get to the core of the subject.我们没触及问题的核心。
  • The pear is rotten to the core.这梨全烂了。
