托福每日一詞：immense及雜七雜八的一些單詞

在托福中對應(yīng)的單詞有g(shù)reat，huge，vast，

副詞形式immensely 是非常的意思，對應(yīng)的單詞是extremely。

這個單詞讓我覺得真是長著一個“大眾面”，覺得很多單詞和它相似，讓我想起一系列的單詞。

首先是令我想起Commence(開始)，有趣的是畢業(yè)典禮居然是commencement，畢業(yè)才是人生的開始啊，真是有深意。

接著我又想起Menace(威脅)，某位大佬說這個單詞是一個men在打牌時出了一張ace所以很有威脅。

最后我又想起Imminent (即將到來)這個單詞。

哈哈，扯得真遠(yuǎn)。
