【單字解析】

人氣是指人物、事件、觀念普及、流行或受歡迎的程度,英文就是popular。這是一個人氣產品或這個產品很有人氣,都是「This is a (very, highly) popular product」,「popular」本身已有受歡迎的肯定意味,除非要強調,否則「very」、「highly」這兩個字可以省略。

可是遇到下面這個情形,就要注意。高人氣,可說成 「highly popular」或「high popularity」,可是低人氣,沒有人說「lowly popular」,只說「low popularity」或「unpopular」,這是語言的習慣。

【例句】

The electric cars have become popular because of the sharp rise of oil price.
