- 1勤奮地、勤勉地
Diligently means “in a diligent way”: you work hard, carefully, and thoroughly. It rides with a verb — study diligently, search diligently, check the figures diligently. It praises the manner of the work, not the talent. It is a little formal, the kind of word a teacher in a comment. In speech, people often just say carefully or hard. Use this one when you want that extra note of “they did not rush and they did not leave gaps.”
From the word’s history
From diligent + -ly.
diligent(勤勉的)加 -ly。
組成diligent + -ly (the usual English way of turning an adjective into an adverb).
