常见错误:
Learners sometimes confuse "merrily" with "merely" because they look similar. "Merrily" means "happily" or "cheerfully," while "merely" means "only" or "just." Another mistake is using "merrily" like a general intensifier (e.g., *"It is merrily cold"*), which is incorrect; it describes the manner of an action (*"He smiled merrily"*), not the degree of an adjective.
含义
in a happy, cheerful way
搭配
sing merrily
|laugh merrily
|skip merrily
|dance merrily
|go merrily along

常见错误:
Learners may not notice the slightly negative or critical tone this sense can have. In sentences like "They spent merrily," it does not just mean they were happy; it often suggests they were not careful or serious enough. Another confusion is treating this as a completely different word; it is the same basic idea of "happily," but context adds the meaning of being unconcerned.

反义词
