from the word go 始终，从一开始；完全，彻

From the word go不是“从这个单词走”，如果你这么理解，那真的会闹笑话的！

“From the word go”是指“始终，从一开始；完全，彻底”的意思！

举个例子：

Again, your readers will have to buy my book for the whole story, but there is no question that Dumbledore took an unnatural interest in Potter from the word go.

读者也需要购买我的书才能知道全部故事，但是毫无疑问，邓布利多从一开始就对波特有一种不正常的兴趣。

Yes, it was love from the word go.

是的，我们从一开始就互相爱上了。
