よくある間違い：
Learners often confuse "scary" and "scared". Use "scary" for the thing that causes fear ("The movie is scary"), and "scared" for the person who feels fear ("I am scared"). Saying "I am scary" usually means other people are afraid of you, not that you feel afraid. Another mistake is using "scary of": say "I am scared of spiders" or "Spiders are scary", not "I am scary of spiders".

よくある間違い：
Learners may think "scary good" or "scary smart" mean both good and frightening in a literal way. In this informal use, "scary" mainly works like a very strong "very" or "really" and is not about real fear. It is also only used before another adjective ("scary good", not "The singer is scary" in this sense).
意味
extremely, to a shocking degree
コロケーション
scary good
|scary smart
|scary fast
|scary strong
|scary talented
類義語
extremely (A neutral adverb; does not carry the playful or slightly dark tone that "scary" has.)
|
insanely (Informal intensifier similar in tone; often interchangeable with this sense of "scary".)
対義語
slightly (Downplays degree instead of intensifying it, the opposite function of this use of "scary".)
