    If you are fearless, you are not afraid如果你是fearless,你就是不害怕,or you act as if you are not或是表現得好像不害怕。It is an adjective, usually praise這是一個形容詞,通常是稱讚:a fearless reporter, a fearless climber像a fearless reporter(無畏的記者)、a fearless climber(無畏的攀岩者)。It can also sound a little reckless它聽起來也可能帶點魯莽:a fearless driver who does not slow down像a fearless driver(不減速的無畏駕駛)。

    People stretch it away from real danger: “fearless” honesty, “fearless” fashion, meaning bold, not “this person feels zero fear.” Though actually almost nobody feels no fear at all; we still call someone fearless when they go ahead anyway.

    People stretch it away from real danger人們也會把這個字用到跟真正的危險無關的地方:"fearless" honesty, "fearless" fashion像『fearless』honesty(無畏的誠實)、『fearless』fashion(無畏的時尚),meaning bold, not "this person feels zero fear."意思是大膽,而不是『這個人完全不會害怕』。Though actually almost nobody feels no fear at all不過實際上幾乎沒有人是完全不會害怕的,we still call someone fearless when they go ahead anyway但只要他們還是照樣往前做,我們還是會說他fearless。

    It is ordinary English, a bit warm and , fine in speech and writing. The opposite feeling is often fearful, but fearful can also mean “causing fear,” so they are not a perfect pair.

    It is ordinary English, a bit warm and admiring這是很普通的英文,帶點溫暖和讚賞的味道,fine in speech and writing用在口語和書面都可以。The opposite feeling is often fearful相反的感覺常常是fearful,but fearful can also mean "causing fear,"但fearful也可以指『使人害怕的』,so they are not a perfect pair所以它們不是完全對稱的一對反義詞。
