14. Irregardless What you think it means: Without regard. 你以为单词的含义是：不管怎样。 What it really means: Nothing. 单词的真正含义是：它也是不存在的。 Like conversate above, irregardless isn’t actually a word. When people say irregardless, they actually mean to say regardless. Regardless means without regard. Irregardless has been used so often that it actually is in the dictionary now and that’s kind of sad. Even though it is technically there, there are a large number of people who don’t consider it a word. You can save yourself a couple of keystrokes and a tongue lashing by just using regardless. 跟前面的conversate一样，irregardless这个单词其实也不存在。当人们说irregardless时，其实是想说regardless。Regardless是指“不管怎样。Irregardless一直被频繁使用，所以现在确实也纳入了词典，这可真无奈啊!不过，尽管它在字典里占有一席，但很多人并不觉得它是个单词。既然用regardless就行了，何必还要多敲几下键盘、多发一个音符来费事呢? 15. Chronic What you think it means: Severe. 你以为单词的含义是：剧烈的。 What it really means: Over the course of a long time. 单词的真正含义是：历时长久的。 |
