喜樂美語
  1. 1

    If something is devoid of a thing, it has none of that thing at all — not a little, none. A speech devoid of humour has no jokes. A room devoid of furniture is empty. People almost always say “devoid of …”; you do not usually leave the word standing alone. It is a fairly formal, written word. In speech most people would just say “with no” or “without any.” Though actually it is a strong word: it does not mean “a bit short of.” It means completely empty of that quality. You can use it about things (a landscape devoid of trees) and about feelings (an apology devoid of warmth).

    毫無、完全沒有（後面固定接 of）
