B1 adjective / verb (past participle) #34 가장 일반적인 2분 분량

recommended

설명: recommended 당신의 레벨에서:

When you like something, you tell your friends. You say: 'I like this book, you should read it.' That is what recommended means. It means you think something is good for a friend.

You use recommended when you give advice. If you go to a restaurant and the food is great, you tell your friend: 'I recommend this place.' It is a very helpful word to share your favorite things.

At this level, you use recommended to describe products or services. You might say, 'The doctor recommended that I exercise more.' It is a formal way to suggest an action or a choice to someone else.

Recommended is often used in professional or academic contexts. You might see it on websites as 'recommended for you.' It implies that someone has analyzed your preferences or needs and suggested the best fit.

In advanced English, recommended carries nuances of authority and expertise. When an expert recommends a course of action, they are providing a professional opinion based on evidence. It is a standard term in formal reports, policy documents, and critical reviews.

The usage of recommended in high-level discourse often involves subtle persuasion. It is used to influence decisions in corporate, legal, or medical fields. The word implies a sense of accountability; when you recommend something, you are essentially attaching your reputation to that suggestion.

  • Means to suggest something as good.
  • Used as verb and adjective.
  • Commonly used in reviews.
  • Often used with 'highly'.

Hey there! The word recommended is a super useful term we use every single day. At its core, it means you are putting your stamp of approval on something. Think of it as a way of saying, 'I trust this, and I think you will like it too!'

You will see this word everywhere, from restaurant reviews to doctor's offices. It bridges the gap between a simple suggestion and a professional endorsement. Using this word shows that you have thought about the needs of the person you are talking to.

The word recommended has a really interesting history. It comes from the Latin word recommendare. The prefix re- means 'again,' and commendare means 'to entrust' or 'to commit to someone's care.'

Over time, it evolved through Old French before entering English. Originally, it was about placing someone under the protection of another. Today, we have shifted the meaning to 'suggesting' or 'praising' something, but the idea of trust remains at its heart!

You can use recommended as an adjective or a verb. For example, 'This is a highly recommended book' (adjective) or 'The teacher recommended that I study more' (verb).

It is a very versatile word. In casual conversation, you might say, 'I recommend this pizza,' but in formal writing, you might say, 'The committee officially recommended the new policy.' It works in almost any register!

While 'recommended' isn't always part of a fixed idiom, it appears in many common expressions. Highly recommended is the most frequent collocation, used to emphasize strong approval.

Another common phrasing is strongly recommended, often used in serious or professional advice. You might also hear recommended reading, which refers to a list of books suggested for students or experts.

Pronounced /ˌrek.əˈmen.dɪd/, this word has four syllables. Stress the third syllable: rek-uh-MEN-did. It rhymes with words like amended or intended.

Grammatically, it is the past participle of 'recommend.' You can use it after the verb 'to be' to describe something, or as part of a passive voice construction. It is a regular verb, so the past tense and participle are both formed by adding -ed.

재미있는 사실

The word originally implied a sense of duty or protection.
