用法筆記
Commonly appears in formal or professional writing (legal documents, medical reports, technical assessments). The negative form 'irremediable' is actually more frequent in everyday usage. The subject is typically an abstract noun (problem, error, condition, damage, situation) — do not use this word to describe a person directly.
