Consistently
强调行为、结果或质量在时间线上稳定、不忽高忽低。数据与绩效报告里常见 “consistently high scores”。

拉丁语 consistere(站在一起、共存:con- + sistere「站立」)发展出「一致、相符」义,经 “consistent” 加 “-ly”。
“consistent” + 副词后缀 “-ly”。
职场反馈中 “consistent” 多为褒义;与 “constantly”(频繁)不同,前者重稳定与连贯。
- 固定搭配: “consistently good” (一直很好), “perform consistently” (表现稳定)
- 形容词: consistent;动词: consist
consistent(一致的)+ ly → 做事「每次都一样标准」。
