enough
/ɪˈnʌf/KK
ɪ·nʌf
1.
足夠的；充分的
表示數量、程度或份量達到某項目的所需標準。
用法：放在名詞前：enough＋名詞。不可數名詞不加冠詞；複數可數名詞用複數形式。
Do we have enough time to catch the last train?
我們有足夠的時間趕上末班火車嗎？
Please bring enough water for the hike.
健行時請帶足夠的水。
2.
夠；足夠地
表示某個動作或狀態的程度已足以達成某個結果。
用法：常見結構為：動詞＋enough、形容詞／副詞＋enough，以及形容詞／副詞＋enough＋to＋原形動詞。
The soup is not cool enough to drink now.
這湯還不夠涼，現在不能喝。
You need to study enough before the test.
你需要在考試前讀書讀得夠多。
還有 2 個進階的意思（國小之後才會學到）
3.
足夠地；相當
用來修飾形容詞或副詞，表示程度相當高，但往往暗示仍有保留或限制。
用法：此用法與「形容詞／副詞＋enough」不同。例如：easy enough 表示「夠容易」，而 enough easy 並不正確。
The homework was easy enough for me to do.
這份作業對我來說夠簡單，可以完成。
We had enough time to get home before the rain started.
我們有足夠的時間在下雨前回到家。
4.
夠了；別再……了
單獨使用，表示某事已達到可接受的限度，或要求某人停止某種行為。
用法：單獨說 Enough! 時，語氣可能很堅決。說 That's enough. 較完整，常指「這樣就夠了」。
That's enough rice for me, thanks.
我的飯這樣就夠了，謝謝。
Enough already—please stop talking during dinner.
夠了，請不要在吃晚餐時一直說話。

學習提示
・記位置：enough＋名詞，但形容詞／副詞＋enough。例如 enough food，卻是 warm enough。
・not enough 表示「不夠」；too＋形容詞／副詞表示「太……而不好或不合適」。例如 not warm enough 是「不夠暖」，too warm 是「太暖」。
・enough to＋原形動詞常表示「夠……可以……」。例如 The box is light enough to carry。
