短释义：
If you do something furtively, you don’t want anyone to notice you; you’re keeping a low profile. Usually, a person acting furtively feels guilty, or knows they’re in danger of getting in trouble or being embarrassed. Furtively comes from the Latin word for “theft,” fur. You can think of furtively as meaning “acting like a thief.” Even though not everyone who behaves furtively is a thief, you might think they are, seeing them sneak away.
副词“鬼鬼祟祟”非常适合描述偷偷摸摸或狡猾的人的动作或行为。万圣节那天，孩子们用卫生纸装饰邻居的树，他们往往会在院子里偷偷溜走。

如果你偷偷地做某事，你不想让任何人注意到你；你保持低调。通常，偷偷摸摸的人会感到内疚，或者知道自己有陷入麻烦或尴尬的危险。偷偷摸摸地源自拉丁语，意思是“偷窃”，即毛皮。你可以把“偷偷摸摸”理解为“像小偷一样行事”。尽管并非所有偷偷摸摸的人都是小偷，但看到他们偷偷溜走时，您可能会认为他们是小偷。
