profuse
意味: Appearing or produced in great abundance; plentifully extravagant, often implying excess or overflowing generosity.
Profuse has two main strands of usage. In medical and scientific writing, it describes excessive physical flow — 'profuse bleeding,' 'profuse sweating.' In general writing, it describes abundant expression — 'profuse apologies,' 'profuse thanks,' 'profuse praise.' The word implies something that pours out freely, sometimes beyond what is needed or expected. It pairs naturally with both positive expressions (gratitude) and clinical descriptions (symptoms).
