adj.形容词
likely, apt这两个词都有“有…可能的”意思。apt强调天生的或习惯性的倾向; likely则强调客观上某事有可能发生。 likely, possible, probable这三个词均表示“可能”。 1.probable常指有较大的可能性,表示客观上潜在的可能性,较有根据和充分理由而值得相信的事,意味着经过权衡正反两方面的理由后而相信的事大概会发生的,常译作“很可能”。 2.possible指有可能小,但强调客观上有可能性,且常有可能性较小的暗示。 3.likely作形容词时意为“很可能,大概,也许”,侧重表示从表面迹象看来某人有可能做某事或某事有可能发生。 liable，apt，likely，prone，subject这些形容词均含“倾向于……的、易于……的”之意。 liable指易于产生某种不利的结果，侧重偶然性，常表示警告或提醒。 apt口语中常用，指自然的或习惯的倾向，无特殊的褒贬意味，常指在一般情况下发生的事。 likely侧重可能性，用于指将来，预言希望或所不希望的结果。 prone多用于人，着重其本性，或倾向于某种错误、弱点或不良行为等。 subject指确实可以察觉的倾向，也就是总结出来的规律。 like,相似，-ly,形容词后缀，来自like.as likely as not说不定或许…likely to可能most likely time estimate最可能时间估计…equally likely event等可能事件likely enough恐怕, 也许most likely很可能not likely不见得
