kind of, sort of除表示"种类"的意义外，还另有一种意义,即表示在某种程度上"有点儿，有些，稍微"的意思。它们可以位于名词，形容词或动词之前用作状语表示程度。不过这种用法是美国英语，多用于非正式语体中。例如：

I sort of thought you might forget.我有点儿认为你可能忘了.(v.)

kind, sort和type的区别

kind指性质相同，且有极相似之物质，在分类中可作为一类。

What kind of cake do you like best? 你最喜欢哪一种饼？

sort 可与kind互换使用，但较为含混，有时只表示大概此种而已。Sort有时有轻蔑的意味，相反kind 要庄重得多。

He makes friends with all sorts of people.他同各种各样的人交朋友。

type则指型，类型，比较具体，肯定等，而kind比较笼统，模糊。
