用法与细微差别
'Slow' is both adjective ('a slow car') and adverb (informally as 'go slow' but formally 'slowly'). Opposite of 'fast' or 'quick'. Used for speed, reactions, progress. Not usually for permanent qualities ('the slow runner' is OK, but not for 'slow man' unless about reaction, not intelligence).
