in relation to the natural environment

In a way that is about how something helps or hurts the natural world (air, water, land, plants, animals).

用法模式: environmentally [adjective] (e.g. environmentally friendly)
常见错误:
Learners sometimes say *"environment friendly"* instead of the common phrase *"environmentally friendly"*. Use the adverb form with these adjectives: "environmentally friendly", "environmentally harmful", "environmentally responsible". Another mistake is to use "ecologic" instead of "ecological" or "environmentally"; in everyday English, people usually say "environmentally" rather than "ecologically" in general contexts.
近义词
ecologically (Sounds slightly more technical or scientific; focuses specifically on ecosystems and biology, while "environmentally" is used more widely in public and policy language.)
反义词
harmfully (When used about the environment (e.g. "harmfully to the environment"), it describes the opposite effect of something that is environmentally positive or careful.)
搭配
environmentally friendly |environmentally sustainable |environmentally responsible |environmentally conscious |environmentally damaging |environmentally harmful

in relation to surrounding conditions

In a way that is about the outside conditions around a person, thing, or system, not about what is inside it.

用法模式: environmentally [past participle] (e.g. environmentally induced)
常见错误:
Learners may confuse this technical meaning with the everyday "about nature and pollution" sense. In academic texts, "environmentally determined" or "environmentally induced" often refer to any surrounding conditions (social, economic, physical), not specifically to nature or ecology.
近义词
contextually (Focuses on the broader context or situation; "environmentally" in this sense emphasizes external conditions (physical, social, or economic) that shape outcomes.)
反义词
genetically (Often used as a contrast in technical discussions, where traits or effects can be genetically determined (from genes) versus environmentally determined (from external conditions).)
搭配
environmentally induced |environmentally mediated |environmentally determined |environmentally driven
主题
science |psychology |medicine |core_vocabulary
