probably和possible的区别

probably和possible这两个词的反义词是 improbable,impossible。

1. possible作“或许”解,有“也许如此,也许不如此”之意。强调客观上有可能性,但常常带有“实际可能性很小”的暗示。

2. probable用来指有根据,合情理,值得相信的事物,带有“大概,很可能”的意味。语气比possible要重,是most likely之意。

It’s possible, though not probable. That he will accept the terms.他也可能接受这些条件,但希望不大。

be possible, be probable常用形式主语it,构成句型为:
