hardly adv几乎不;简直不
This is hardly the time to discuss such matters. 在现在讨论这事根本不合适。
Peter is hardly ever late.玛丽几乎从不迟到。
hardly any几乎没有hardly ever很少
almost never“几乎从不”=hardly ever;almost no money=hardly any money. almost: 指在程度上相差很小,差不多。
当想表达“不足”或“尚差一点儿”时最好用almost
Dreams of finding lost treasure almost came true recently. 寻找丢失的金银财宝的梦想最近几乎实现了。
注1:有时almost和nearly可以换用,但如果要表达“差一点儿”还是用almost确切
I almost fell down. 我差一点儿没跌倒。
注:句中有no, none, nothing, never等词时,不可以用nearly,但可以用almost
