利维-德特里克告诉商业内幕网,即便对英语为母语且受过良好教育的人来说,也很难区别“affect”和“effect”这两个单词。经常有简历将两个单词用错。
Simply put, “affect” is almost always used as a verb, as in, “The weather affected my plans.” Meanwhile, “effect” is generally used as a noun, as in, “The diet pills did not have an effect.”
简单来说,“affect”几乎总是做动词使用,比如:“The weather affected my plans.(天气影响了我的计划。)”而“effect”则通常做名词使用,比如,“The diet pills did not have an effect.(这些减肥药没有效果。)”
‘Ensure’ vs. ‘insure’
Another pair of words people have trouble distinguishing between is “ensure” and “insure,” Leavy-Detrick said.
利维-德特里克称,人们区分不清的另一对单词是“ensure”和“insure”。
To “ensure” something is to make sure that something is the case.
To “ensure” something意思是确定事情是这样的。
To “insure” is to provide or obtain insurance.
To “insure”指的是提供或获得保障。
‘Complement’ vs. ‘compliment’
Here’s another case of homophones doing us in. “Complement” and “compliment” are pronounced identically, but mean totally different things.
