positive degree

同根派生

The positive degree is "good",the comparative degree is "better",and the superlative degree is "best".
"good"(好)為原級(jí), "better"(較好)為比較級(jí), "best"(最好)為最高級(jí)。
So it is assumed that the positive degree of word's own semanteme restricts both positive and negative usage, and the lower positive word is used in negative structure with the higher freguency.
并假設(shè)；詞語自身語義的肯定程度高低制約著其肯定和否定用法，肯定程度越低的詞用于否定結(jié)構(gòu)的幾率越大。
There is positive proof that he did it.
有確切的證據(jù)證明他做了此事。
Each of the components is useful in its degree.
每一個(gè)元件都各有程度不同的用處。
Criticism is not lost on you to some degree.
在某種程度上，批評(píng)對(duì)你起了作用。
