词性：adj.
When you need a word that’s deeper than “deep,” consider profound . A philosopher is likely to make many profound pronouncements.
Profundus literally means “deep” in Latin, and profound had the same meaning when it entered English in the 14th century. But even then, it also meant “figuratively deep” — that is, very great or intense: “The new laws have had a profound impact.” Of people, it means “very knowledgeable or insightful,” but sometimes when a person tries to sound profound, they’re really just giving you superficial knowledge dressed up with big words.

当然可以，@Tristan ！你所提到的词语是 “profound”。让我们详细讲解一下这个词并提供一些例句和它的来历。
词性： 形容词 (adj.)音标： [prəˈfaʊnd]
[影响]深深的，深刻的，重大的

“Profound” 源自拉丁语词根 profundus ，意为“深”。在14世纪进入英语时，既有“深”的意思，也延伸出了“意义深远”或“极其重要”的含义。
在正式文书中,“profound” 常用来描述重要的影响或严肃的主题。它经常出现在学术文章、报告和正式信件中。
例子：
The research findings have a profound significance for future studies. (研究结果对未来的研究具有重大意义。)
It is with profound respect that we acknowledge Dr. Smith’s contributions. (我们怀着深深的敬意承认史密斯博士的贡献。)
在口语中，“profound” 可以描述深刻的感受或有见地的见解，但需要注意保持自然，不要显得过于夸张或不合时宜。
例子：
That movie had a profound effect on me. (那部电影对我产生了深远的影响。)
His words were profound and made me think deeply. (他的话语深刻，让我深思。)
联想记忆法： 记住“profound” 就像记住“深”的意思，可以联想到大海的深度，帮助记忆这个单词表示“深刻、重大的”含义。句子记忆法： 多用这个单词造句练习，例如记住上面提到的例句。音标记忆法： 熟记音标 [prəˈfaʊnd] 并多听多模仿正确的发音。
