- 1增加的；提高了的
Increased means something has become bigger — more in amount, number, or how strong it is. “The price increased” and “they increased the price” both work: a thing can grow by itself, or someone can make it grow. As a describing word, an increased risk is a risk that is already bigger than before. Though actually, increased and increasing are not twins. Increased looks back: the change has happened. Increasing is still going on. The word is ordinary — news, school, shops — not fancy. In very casual talk people also just say “went up” or “got bigger.”
increased 指某樣東西變大了，數量變多，或強度變高。它有兩種句型：「The price increased」是價格自己漲了，「they increased the price」是有人把價格提高。放在名詞前面時，「an increased risk」指的是已經比以前更高的風險。increased 有點像回頭看，變化已經發生了；increasing 則是還在進行中。這個字很平常，新聞、學校、商店裡都會看到，口語中也常直接說變高了、變大了。
組成increase + -ed (past, or already bigger). Increase does not split in a helpful way — the crease in your trousers is a different word. It comes from Latin for “grow.”
