The important thing is that unharmed almost always needs danger nearby. You would not look at a healthy friend walking down the street and say "he is unharmed". You say it about the passengers after a crash, the hostages after a rescue, the house after a fire, the paintings after a flood. The word quietly implies that something bad happened and this person or thing escaped it.

The important thing is重點是 that unharmed almost always needs danger nearby用 unharmed 這個字，附近幾乎一定要有危險存在。You would not look at a healthy friend walking down the street你不會看著一個在路上走得好好的朋友 and say "he is unharmed"說「he is unharmed（他沒受傷）」。You say it about the passengers after a crash你會這樣說車禍後的乘客 the hostages after a rescue獲救後的人質 the house after a fire火災後的房子 the paintings after a flood水災後的那些畫。The word quietly implies這個字暗暗地帶出一個訊息 that something bad happened and this person or thing escaped it就是壞事發生過，而這個人或東西逃過了一劫。

That is why it lives so naturally in news reports: "All four crew members were rescued unharmed." Grammatically it is flexible. It sits after the verb be — they were unharmed — and it also works as a kind of extra comment tagged onto a sentence: she walked away unharmed; the child was found unharmed. It very rarely comes before a noun; "an unharmed child" is possible but sounds odd, and native speakers would usually say "the child was unharmed".

That is why it lives so naturally in news reports這就是為什麼它在新聞報導裡用起來這麼自然 "All four crew members were rescued unharmed."像「All four crew members were rescued unharmed.（四名機組人員全數獲救，毫髮無傷。）」。Grammatically it is flexible文法上它很有彈性。It sits after the verb be它可以放在 be 動詞後面 they were unharmed像 they were unharmed and it also works as a kind of extra comment tagged onto a sentence它也可以當作附加在句子後面的補充說明 she walked away unharmed像 she walked away unharmed the child was found unharmed或 the child was found unharmed。It very rarely comes before a noun它很少放在名詞前面 "an unharmed child" is possible but sounds odd「an unharmed child」不是不行，但聽起來怪怪的 and native speakers would usually say "the child was unharmed"母語者通常會說「the child was unharmed」。

You will also hear the fixed pair safe and unharmed, which is a little repetitive but extremely common in reporting, and physically unharmed, which is doing something specific and rather sad — it means the body is fine, and gently suggests the mind may not be.

You will also hear the fixed pair safe and unharmed你也會聽到固定搭配 safe and unharmed which is a little repetitive but extremely common in reporting這雖然有點重複，但在報導裡非常常見 and physically unharmed還有 physically unharmed which is doing something specific and rather sad這個用法特別、也有點令人心酸 it means the body is fine意思是身體沒事 and gently suggests the mind may not be卻婉轉地暗示心裡可能不一定沒事。
