- 1a/ˈbɑːdɪli/ · /ˈbɒdɪli/of the body身體的
Relating to a person's body — the way it works, what it feels, or what comes out of it — rather than to the mind.
bodily 是「跟身體有關的」，用來把身體跟心理分開，例如 bodily sensations（身體的感覺）不同於 feelings（心裡的感受）。它幾乎只放在名詞前面，搭配也很固定：bodily functions（吃飯、呼吸、上廁所這些運作）、bodily fluids（體液）、bodily harm（法律新聞裡的身體傷害）。跟 physical 比，physical 用得廣得多，bodily 更書面、更正式。

- 2r/ˈbɑːdɪli/ · /ˈbɒdɪli/lifting a whole person整個人一起
By lifting, carrying, or moving a person's whole body at once, instead of leading them or pulling one part of them.
當副詞用的 bodily 講的是「整個人一起被移動」——不是拉手、不是推一下，而是連人帶身整個抱起來、扛走或托過去。常搭配 lift、carry、move 這類動詞，畫面很具體：一個人被另一個人整個提離地面。它多半出現在描寫性的句子裡；日常口語會直接說 picked him up。
常見搭配
lift somebody bodily
把某人整個抱起來
to pick a person's whole body up off the ground
The firefighter lifted the child bodily onto the ladder.
carry somebody bodily
把某人整個扛著走
to carry a person's whole body

這個 bodily 講的是「東西整件一起搬走」——沒有拆開、沒有分批，原樣移動到另一個地方。常出現在古蹟遷移、移動大型機具、整棟建築搬家這類報導裡，搭配 move、transfer、lift 這種動詞。跟前面那個「把人整個抱起來」的用法是同一個畫面，只是主角從人換成了大東西。
