You are the very man I want to see. 你正是我想要见的人。

At that very moment the phone rang. 就在那时电话铃响了。

2. 用作副词，表示“很”、“非常”，注意以用法：

(1) 主要用来修饰形容词或副词的原级，但不能修饰比较级。如：

这本书便宜得多。

正：This book is much cheaper.

误：This book is very cheaper.

注：very 不能修饰比较级，但有时可用来修饰最高级(放在定冠词之后)。如：

This is the very best dictionary. 这是最最好的词典。

但是 very 通常不修饰由 most 构成的最高级。

(2) 用于修饰 own, first, last, next, same 等词，加强语气。如：

She was wearing the very same shoes as me. 他与我穿的鞋子完全一样。

You can keep this for your very own. 你可以把这个留作你自己用。

I found the sentence on the very next page. 我就在下一页找到了这个句子。

(3) 某些表语形容词通常不用 very 修饰。如：

误：very asleep / very awake / very alone正：fast asleep / wide awake / all alone(4) 不要根据汉语意思用 very 去修饰动词。如：

我们很喜欢这个小男孩。

正：We like the boy very much.

误：We very like the boy.

我很想留在这儿。

正：I want to stay here very much.

误：I very want to stay here.

我会非常想念你们的。

正：I shall miss you very much.

误：I shall very miss you.
