「ずっと ②」の情報

In addition to the ずっと used to mean 'always', or 'non-stop', this adverb may also convey that one thing is 'by far (A)', or 'much more (A)' than something else. In these phrases, ずっと usually comes at the beginning of the sentence, before some form of comparison will be made between (A) and (B).

Fun Fact

Although ずっと as 'ever since', or 'always' may seem quite different to ずっと as 'way more', or 'by far', the literal meanings are actually exactly the same. In all cases, ずっと simply highlights 'an extremely big interval'.

    Bumping because I’d also like to know the answer to this! In what parts of Japan is it only used in way 1?

    @cineebon @Johnathan-Weir

    Hey and sorry for the late answer

    I tried but couldn’t remember the place nor find a source about it, so I decided to remove that part for the time being. If I find anything, then I will make sure to respond here.

    I am really sorry for causing confusion and inconvenience

  • cineebon

    Aw, thank you for the response and no worries! If you figure it out, please let us know.

    漫画の主人公:「これから、ずっとずっと強くなるぞ。」

    This review tripped me up, I didn’t see any mention of this doubled up pattern in the lesson. Assuming this is just a way to emphasize the meaning of “far more?”

    Hey @danzuo !

    Yes, ずっと can be repeated for emphasis! It is similar to how ‘way’ is sometimes repeated in English like, ‘It is way, way hotter where I live’.

    I hope this answers your question!
