释义
Used to describe language that is said aloud rather than written. It can also be the past participle of 'speak'.
用法与细微差别
Common in phrases like 'spoken English', 'spoken language', and 'softly spoken'. As an adjective, it often contrasts with 'written'. As part of a verb form, it appears with 'have/has/had', as in 'I have spoken'. Don't confuse it with 'oral'—'oral' is more formal.
