容易的;舒适的;宽裕的;从容的;
容易地;不费力地;悠闲地;缓慢地;

这组词都可以表示“做某事或理解某事没有太大困难”。它们的区别是:
simply是个最一般的词,指不复杂或不难懂,因此能很快被头脑接受; easy也是一个最一般的词,常指事情容易做,不费劲; facile源于法语,几乎等于easy,但在现代英语中它常与一件表面上的甚至是虚假的东西相联系,因而带有贬义色彩; simplified指经过简化变得不复杂、不难理解或不难做。例如:
It is very easy to do this thing.做这件事非常容易。
There are a lot of simplified novels in our library.我们图书馆里有许多简写本小说。the facile smile of the high-pressure salesman有高度工作压力的售货员脸上皮笑肉不笑
I found it easy. 我觉得这个很容易。
I found it easily. 我很容易就找到了它。
easy和easily都可用作副词,一般情况下用easily多些,而easy则多用于习语中。
词根词缀法
eas 舒适的;容易的 + y …的 → 安逸的;简单的
单词说明
除用作形容词外,有时用作副词,主要用于某些习语,如:
Take it easy.不要紧张。
Easy come,easy go.来得容易,去得快。
Easier said than done.说说容易做起来难。
如要表示做某事很容易,通常用:It is easy to do sth这个句型。如:
Itˈs easy(for me)to answer the question.
要(我)回答这个问题是容易的。
这类句型的主语通常是it,不能是具体的人或事物,除非这个人或物与其后的不定式有动宾关系(且这个不定式必须用主动式表示被动意义),如:
English is easy to learn.英语易学。
He is easy to work with.他容易相处。
但不能说:He is easy to learn English.
