請問appropriate & proper 之分別

等我用yahoo 字典黎解釋一下喇

appropriate 同 proper 都係adj.(形容詞) 仲要係有同意思
適當的,恰當的,相稱的[(+to/for)]
She picked up a dress appropriate for the occasion.
她挑了一件適合該場合穿的衣服。

適合的,適當的,恰當的[Z][+to-v][+that]
He wondered whether it would be proper to knock at her door.
他不知道敲她的門是否恰當。

而proper 作為形容詞更有不少其他解釋
合乎體統的,循規蹈矩的;正派的,高尚的
Many young people think old people are too proper.
許多年輕人認為老人太循規蹈矩。

【口】真的[B]
What Tom wants is a proper dog.
湯姆想要的是一隻真的狗。

嚴格意義上的,本身的[Z][A]
How large is the city proper?
市區本身有多大?

【英】【口】完完全全的,徹底的[Z][B]

特有的,獨特的[F][(+to)]
The custom is proper to the island.
這個風俗是這個島上特有的。


另外 appropriate 就可以作為動詞用 例子如下
1. 撥出(款項等)[(+for)]
The city will appropriate funds for the new airport.
該市將撥款建造新機場。
2. 佔用;盜用,挪用
The manager was found to have appropriated store money.
那位經理曾經挪用店裡的錢。

proper - 徹底的
appropriate - 適當的

e.g. the dishes need to be washed properly.
碗要徹底地洗乾淨
e.g. you need an appropriate treatment for your illness.
你需要適當的治療
