「seriously」、「actually」、「really」の違いを説明します。
1. 「seriously」は、真剣に、本気で、冗談でなくという意味です。何かを強調したり、驚きを表現したりする際に使われます。例えば、
- Are you seriously going to quit your job?(本当に仕事を辞めるつもりなの?)
- I seriously can't believe you did that.(本当にそれをやったの?)
2. 「actually」は、実際に、実際は、実際にはという意味で使われます。予想と異なる事実を伝える際に使われることが多いです。例えば、

3. 「really」は、本当に、実際に、本当にそうかという意味で使われます。強調や疑問を表現する際に使われます。例えば、
