用法筆記
Frequently used before nouns to describe a product, condition, or result that has been made better (improved version, improved quality, improved conditions). Can also follow the verb 'be' in a predicative position (The situation is much improved). Avoid using 'more improved' — since 'improved' already means 'better', the comparative form 'more improved' is considered redundant; use 'better' or 'further improved' instead.
