“矛盾地”常见的英文表达是 “paradoxically”,也可用 “contradictorily” ,不过前者使用更为普遍。
paradoxically:强调表面上存在矛盾、看似不合逻辑,但实际却真实存在的情况 。例如:Paradoxically, the more he tried to forget, the clearer the memories became.(矛盾的是,他越想忘记,那些回忆就越清晰。)
contradictorily:侧重于表达相互矛盾、不一致的状态。例如:He spoke contradictorily about the project, making it hard for others to understand his true intention.(他对这个项目发表了自相矛盾的言论,让其他人难以理解他的真实意图 。 )
