常见错误：
Learners often say *"the likelihood to do something"* instead of the more natural *"the likelihood of doing something"* or *"the likelihood that something will happen"*. They may also confuse "likelihood" with "possibility"; "likelihood" suggests thinking about how probable something is, not just whether it can happen at all.
含义
probability that something will occur
搭配
high likelihood
|strong likelihood
|reduce the likelihood
|likelihood of success
|likelihood that
|in all likelihood
近义词
probability (More formal and slightly more common in statistics and technical contexts, but often interchangeable.)
|
chance (More informal and general; sounds less technical than "likelihood".)
反义词
improbability (Direct opposite, focusing on the fact that something is not likely to happen.)
|
impossibility (Stronger opposite, meaning there is no chance at all that something will happen.)
