よくある間違い:
Learners sometimes confuse "intense" (adjective) with "intensely" (adverb), saying *"He is intense proud"* instead of "He is intensely proud." Also, learners may overuse "very" and avoid "intensely" even when a stronger or more emotional tone is needed.

[someone] [verb] intensely
よくある間違い:
Learners sometimes use "hard" or "a lot" instead of "intensely" and miss the idea of strong focus or seriousness. Another mistake is using "intensive" (adjective) in place of "intensely" (adverb), for example saying *"He worked intensive"* instead of "He worked intensely."
類義語

対義語
