This gave rise to the general sense of calculating the mean (mid 18th cent.).

average adj.
⇨ average (very average players) ⇨ normal (the average day) average

adjective

average ♦︎ simple ♦︎ ordinary ♦︎ plain ♦︎ unremarkableThese words all describe things or people that are not special because they are not unusual, interesting or clever. 這些詞均表示普通的、平庸的。PATTERNS AND COLLOCATIONS 句型和搭配◆an average / ordinary sort of person / thing◆an average / a simple / an ordinary / an unremarkable person◆average / ordinary players◆simple / plain ignorance / common sense◆pretty average / ordinary / unremarkable◆very average / simple / ordinary■ average (often disapproving) not special in any way; not better than most others 普通的；中等的；不出衆的◆He was quite an average sort of student, nothing out of the ordinary.他是個相當普通的學生，一點也不出衆。◆The quality has been pretty average.質量很一般。   see also average ⇨ normal ■ simple [usually before noun] (often approving) (of a person) not grand, rich, clever or hard to understand; (of a thing or quality) not special or complicated （人）普通的，平凡的；（事物或性質）普通的，簡單的◆They were simple country people.他們是普普通通的鄉下人。◆In some cases his argument is based on simple ignorance.某些時候，他的論點純粹是出於無知。ⓘ When used to describe a person or a good quality simple is usually approving; when it is used to describe a bad quality it is usually disapproving. 用於形容人或高質量時，simple通常帶褒義。用於形容低劣的品質時則帶貶義。■ ordinary (disapproving) having no unusual or interesting features 平庸的；平淡無奇的◆The meal was very ordinary.這頓飯平常得很。◆I lead a very ordinary life.我過着平淡無奇的生活。ⓘ In this meaning ordinary very often follows very, which emphasizes that ordinary is being used in a disapproving way. 表達此義時，ordinary總跟在very後面，強調ordinary的貶義用法。   see also ordinary ⇨ normal OPP extraordinary ⇨ remarkable ■ plain [only before noun] (often approving) (of a quality) not special or complicated; (of a person) not trying to appear more important or intelligent than they are （性質）普通的，簡單的；（人）樸素的，不張揚的◆It doesn't require special skills, just plain common sense.這個工作不要求有特殊技能，只要有普通常識就夠了。◆He prided himself on being a plain, honest man with no nonsense about him.他爲自己是個樸素、誠實、規規矩矩的人而感到自豪。  see also plain ⇨ plain adj. 2 NOTE 辨析 Simple or plain?Both these words can describe people or qualities, but simple is used more about people and plain is used more about qualities. When used to describe people, simple tells you how other people see sb (= not grand, rich or clever, but in a good way); plain tells you more about how sb sees himself/herself (= not pretending to be grand, rich or clever). 兩個詞均可以描述人或特質，但是simple多用於人，plain多用於特質。描述人時，simple指對他人的看法，即平凡的、普通的，但是屬正面看法；plain多指對自己的看法，意爲樸素的、不虛誇的。■ unremarkable not special in any way so that people do not take notice 一般的；平凡的；不起眼的◆It was a pleasant but unremarkable town.這是個溫馨而又平淡無奇的小鎮。OPP remarkable ⇨ remarkable
