adj.(形容词)

usual, common, universal

这三个词都有“平常的”“常见的”意思。其区别是：

common用于物指“不稀奇”“很平常”,用于人指“没有职位”“不高贵”; universal指对所有的人或所有事物都适用,没有例外; usual指“经常的”“惯用的”,强调习惯性的、符合规章制度的或一贯如此的。例如:

He wasn't hero but just a common man.

他不是个英雄而是一个平常人。

Overpopulation is a universal problem.

人口过剩是个普遍的问题。

Playing chess is his usual pastime.

他经常用下棋来打发时间。

usual, accustomed

这组词的共同意思是“习惯的”。其区别是：

accustomed为正式用语,作定语时,表示长期如此而养成的习惯,已被别人熟悉和了解,作表语时,可作“习惯于某事”或“习惯于做某事”解; usual作“通常”解,是指在正常事态发展中经常发生而不带任何特异性的因素。

usual, ordinary

这两个词都可表示“一般的”“通常的”。其区别是：

usual是按照某类人或某个人的常规情况判断,有“遵循常规”的意味; ordinary是按照一般标准衡量和判断,进而有“平凡无奇”的意味。例如:

She wore her usual white uniform.

她穿着过去经常穿的那身白色制服。

She wore an ordinary uniform.

她穿着一身普通的制服。

usual, regular, habitual

这三个词都可表示“一般的”“通常的”。其区别是：

usual可用于任何经常固定或有一定时间间隔而重复发生的事情,它既可以指群体习俗或个人习惯,也可指自然界的情况; regular则强调遵守约定俗成的规则; habitual指经常重复的动作、习惯性的行为或素质,但其议论的中心应是“人”。例如:

His pulse is not very regular.他的脉搏不很规律。

He's an habitual coffee drinker—he gets through about ten cups a day.他喝咖啡已成习惯——每天要喝10杯左右。

as usual, as a rule

这两个短语的共同意思是“通常”。其区别在于:前者可以不受时态的限制,而后者则多用于一般过去时。例如:

As a rule he went home twice a week.他照例每星期回家两次。

It snowed all day, but the bus ran as usual.雪下了一整天,可公共汽车仍照常行驶。

as usual, usually

这两者都可表示“通常地”。其区别是：

usually 指经常的行为或动作; 而as usual指一次性的行为或动作,意为“像往常一样,照例”。试比较:

He usually goes to bed at ten o'clock.

通常他10点钟上床。

He went to bed at ten o'clock as usual today.

他今天像往常一样10点钟上床。
