文法句型

verb + angrily (of weather/sea)

用法筆記

Mostly literary or journalistic. The subject is always a force of nature — sea, waves, sky, clouds, wind, thunder, river. Don't use in everyday speech about weather.

常見錯誤

It rained angrily yesterday.
It poured down yesterday.
💡this sense fits dramatic verbs like 'crash', 'churn', 'roll', not the simple verb 'rain'.

莉娜手臂上被蚊子咬的地方,一個小時內就紅腫了起來。

verb of swelling/inflaming + angrily

同義詞
  • painfully

  • fiercely

    emphasises intensity of the soreness

文法句型

verb/adjective describing a wound + angrily

用法筆記

Typical subject is a wound, scar, rash, bite, or burn. Verbs are physical sensations — throb, sting, swell, glow, bleed. Distinguish from sense 1: here nobody is feeling angry; the injury just looks intensely sore.

常見錯誤

My head hurt angrily.
My head throbbed painfully.
💡'angrily' for pain works only when the body part is visibly red or swollen, not for inner aches.
