よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes confuse "weakly" with "weekly". "Weakly" means "in a weak way" and describes how something is done (adverb). "Weekly" means "every week" and describes how often something happens. Example: "He smiled weakly" (correct) vs. "He smiled weekly" (wrong). Learners also sometimes say "He is weakly" when describing a person. In that case, use the adjective: "He is weak," not "He is weakly."

よくある間違い：
Learners often interpret "weakly" here as simply "a little" or "slightly" and miss the formal meaning that a weaker or non-strict version of a condition is being used, usually in contrast with "strongly" or "strictly". In phrases like "weakly increasing," it does not just mean "increasing only a little"; it means "never decreasing and possibly staying equal."
意味
in a mathematically weak sense
コロケーション
weakly increasing
|weakly decreasing
|weakly stationary

|weakly NP-hard
|weakly typed
類義語
non-strictly (Used mainly with inequalities in mathematics to mean that equality is allowed; very close in some contexts (e.g., non-strictly increasing).)
|
loosely (Sometimes used informally to mean "not in the strict sense," but less precise and more general than "weakly.")
対義語
strongly (Direct technical opposite, meaning the stronger or more restrictive version of a property holds.)
|
strictly (Opposite in the context of inequalities or conditions that do not allow equality or exceptions.)

定義
In math, science, or computing, in a way that follows an easier or less strict rule than the full or "strong" rule, often allowing equality.
In mathematics, logic, computer science, or related fields, in a way that satisfies a weaker or less restrictive version of a stated property, often allowing equality where a strict inequality would not.

having low acid strength
Used in chemistry to describe a substance or solution that is an acid but not a strong one, often because it only partly breaks into ions in water.
例文

- The solution is only weakly acidic, so it is not very dangerous to handle with care.
- Rainwater is usually weakly acidic due to dissolved carbon dioxide.
weakly basic

例文
- Ammonia is weakly basic in water, so its pH is only slightly above neutral.
- The solution is weakly basic, with a pH just over 7.
- Some salts create a weakly basic environment when they dissolve.
weakly correlated
1/wˈikli kˈɔɹəlˌeɪtɪd/

weakly typed
1/wˈikli tˈaɪpt/
fixed phrase

例文
- JavaScript is often described as a weakly typed language because it allows many implicit type conversions.
- In a weakly typed system, adding a number to a string may not cause an immediate error.
