This sense only describes people (or groups of people). Frequently paired with intensifying adverbs such as 'widely', 'well', or 'most' — 'a well-traveled diplomat', 'the most traveled student', 'a widely traveled journalist'.

常見錯誤

❌The traveled road leads to the village.
✅The well-traveled diplomat led the negotiations.
💡This sense applies to people, not roads or paths.
❌She is very traveled.
✅She is widely traveled.
💡'Traveled' in this sense is usually modified by an adverb like 'widely', 'well', or 'most'; it sounds unnatural without one.

文法句型

(heavily/well/little) + traveled + noun

用法筆記

This sense applies only to physical routes and roads. Frequently paired with adverbs such as 'heavily', 'well', or 'little' to indicate how many people use the route. The comparative 'less traveled' is common when contrasting quiet routes against busy ones.

常見錯誤

❌A traveled guide showed us around the museum.
✅A well-traveled highway connects the two cities.
💡This sense describes roads and paths, not people.
❌The traveled airport had many flights.
✅The heavily traveled airport handled fifty thousand passengers daily.
💡Use 'heavily' or another intensifier; 'traveled' alone sounds incomplete.
