常見錯誤

❌He ate the cake rapturously.
✅He ate the cake with great enjoyment.
💡'rapturously' describes strong emotional reactions (praise, cheering, love), not everyday pleasures like eating.
❌She rapturously agreed to meet for coffee.
✅She happily agreed to meet for coffee.
💡'rapturously' is too strong for casual social arrangements; use 'happily' or 'gladly' instead.
