    used specifically for written works like books and articles, not for music or films

反義詞

文法句型

unreleased + [album/track/film/recording/document]

用法筆記

Almost always used before a noun (attributive): unreleased album, unreleased footage. Avoid using it after a linking verb — 'the film is unreleased' sounds unnatural; prefer 'the film has not been released.'

常見錯誤

❌The book is still unreleased.
✅The book has not been published yet.
💡'unpublished' is the usual word for books and written works; 'unreleased' is broader and covers music, films, recordings, and documents.
