语气副词:才、刚好、偏、恰好
Adverbs expressing mood: 才、刚好、偏、恰好
Explanation
These modal adverbs are used to emphasize the speaker's attitude or the coincidental nature of a situation. '才' here expresses strong negation or refusal (e.g. '我才不要' means 'I absolutely don't want it'). '刚好' and '恰好' both mean that something happens just right, by coincidence, but '刚好' is more colloquial while '恰好' is more literary. '偏' indicates deliberately or unexpectedly doing the opposite, carrying a sense of stubbornness or contrast (e.g. '偏要去' - insist on going).
