    Here exceptionally means extremely — so much that it stands out from what you usually see. “She is exceptionally kind” is not “kind, but this is a special case”; it means she is kind to an unusual degree, almost surprisingly so. It likes to sit in front of an adjective: exceptionally good, exceptionally cold, exceptionally difficult.

    Here exceptionally means extremely這裡的exceptionally意思是「非常、極度」,so much that it stands out from what you usually see程度高到超出你平常看到的。"She is exceptionally kind" is not "kind, but this is a special case"「She is exceptionally kind」不是說「善良,但這是特例」;it means she is kind to an unusual degree, almost surprisingly so意思是她善良到不尋常的程度,幾乎讓人驚訝。It likes to sit in front of an adjective它喜歡放在形容詞前面:exceptionally good, exceptionally cold, exceptionally difficult像exceptionally good、exceptionally cold、exceptionally difficult。

    The feeling is a little careful and educated, but not stiff, and people use it in speech as well as writing.

    The feeling is a little careful and educated, but not stiff這個字的感覺有點講究、有教養,但不死板,and people use it in speech as well as writing而且口語和書面都會用。

    Though actually, the same word can also mean “as a special case, not as the rule”: “Exceptionally, the library will stay open on Sunday.” That second use is less common. When it sits before an adjective, read it as “extremely.”

    Though actually不過其實,the same word can also mean "as a special case, not as the rule"同一個字也可以表示「當作特例,而不是常態」:"Exceptionally, the library will stay open on Sunday."像「Exceptionally, the library will stay open on Sunday.」That second use is less common這第二種用法比較少見。When it sits before an adjective當它放在形容詞前面時,read it as "extremely."就當成「非常」來理解。
