摘自Little Brown Handbook
as to
A stuffy substitute for about: The suspect was questioned about
(not as to) her actions.
at
The use of at after where is wordy and should be avoided: Where are
you meeting him? is preferable to Where are you meeting him at?
at this point in time
Wordy for now, at this point, or at this time.
awful, awfully
Strictly speaking, awful means "awe-inspiring". As intensifiers
meaning "very" or "extremely" (He tried awfully hard), awful and
awfully should be avoided in formal speech or writing.
