as a result; therefore

Used to mean that something happens because of what was just said.

用法模式: Consequently, [subject] [verb] ...
常见错误:
Learners sometimes use *consequently* in very casual speech where *so* or *and then* would sound more natural, making their English too formal. Another common mistake is word order, for example: *He consequently late came* instead of *He consequently came late* or *Consequently, he came late*. Learners may also confuse *consequently* with *subsequently*: *consequently* means 'as a result', while *subsequently* means 'after that in time'. Finally, some learners say *as consequently* or *because consequently*, which is incorrect; use either *because* or *consequently*, but not both together.
近义词
therefore (Very close in meaning and formality; slightly more common in both speech and writing.) | as a result (Multi-word, slightly less formal and more conversational, but used in similar contexts.) | thus (More formal and often used in academic or technical writing to show a logical result.) | so (Much more informal and common in everyday speech; often used at the start of a sentence.)
反义词
nevertheless (Introduces a contrasting idea rather than a result, so it functions as a practical opposite in discourse.) | however (Signals contrast or exception instead of a consequence, often used where 'consequently' would be inappropriate.)
