常见误用提醒
使用 debilitative：The disease is very debilitative for him to recover. → The disease is very debilitative, making it hard for him to recover. (错误：误用 'for him to recover' 作为补语，debilitative 是形容词，不直接接不定式短语。正确：使用分词短语或从句来描述影响，例如 'making it hard'。)
使用 debilitative：He feels debilitative after the long meeting. → He feels debilitated after the long meeting. (错误：混淆形容词 debilitative（描述事物特性）和动词过去分词 debilitated（描述状态）。正确：debilitative 修饰名词（如 effects），而 debilitated 用于描述人的感受或状态。)
使用 debilitated：I am very debilitated after the exam. → I am exhausted after the exam. (debilitated 通常描述严重或长期的虚弱，如疾病所致；日常疲劳用 exhausted 或 tired 更自然。)
