adverb

You acted perfectly properly in approaching me first.你先来找我,做得对极了。
NOTE 辨析 Acceptable or proper? Acceptable has a wider general meaning than proper: things can be socially/morally acceptable but notsocially/morally proper because the social/moral aspect is included in the meaning of proper. Proper is a more formal word than acceptable, and more frequent in British English than in American English. It can suggest a greater degree of approval: actions that are proper are actions that you approve of; actions that are acceptable are actions that you do not disapprove of. * acceptable比proper含义更宽泛。可以说socially/morally acceptable,但不说socially/morally proper,因为proper已包含“为社会认可、合乎道德”之意。 proper比acceptable正式,在英式英语中比在美式英语中常用,还意味着更大程度的赞同:proper可形容自己赞同的行为,acceptable可形容自己不反对的行为。
