每日一词85/1.11/thankfully

1. 释义：used to say that you are glad that something has happened, especially because a difficult situation has ended or been avoided

2. 理解："thankfully"是副词，意思是“幸亏、幸运的是、令人欣慰的事”。虽然从字面上来看thankfully等同于gratefully, 但这种用法是有争议的，thankfully最常见的意思更接近于luckily和fortunately, 即“幸运的是、谢天谢地”，是一个很好用的词。

3. 应用：

1）翻译：还好，我们在推出产品之前及时发现了一个瑕疵，并马上解决了问题。Thankfully, we spotted a product defect in time, and fixed it before the launch.

2）造句：

It's the first time our professor take the register, thankfully, I'm not absent.（教授课前点名时幸运到场）
