我在某英語教材看到這句：
She put her few belongings into a suitcase and left the house forever.
leave the house 是一瞬間的動作，是否不應以forever 作修飾？正如die 也是一瞬間的動作，所以不能說She died forever.。如果硬要用forever，是否應將句子改寫成She put her few belongings into a suitcase, left the house and was away from the house forever. ？
齊來分析這句句子

✔ 最佳答案
die 不一樣，一死就是永遠，所以 die forever 是有點多餘。left the house 離開居所是可以回來的，所以可以是 left the house for a while 離開居所一陣子。left the house forever 永遠離開了她的寓所。
你改寫的句子跟原來的句子意思一模一樣，你的比較婆媽。它的比較精簡。
