In this episode, I am going to teach you about two words that look similar, sound similar, and mean similar things.
在本集中,我将教您两个看起来相似、听起来相似且含义相似的单词。
But it is important that you know how to use these words correctly.
但重要的是,您要知道如何正确使用这些单词。
The words are advice and advise. Advice and advise. Let's start with advice.
这些单词是advice和advise。让我们从advice开始。
This word is spelled a-d-v-i-c-e, and you can hear that it ends with an S sound. We spell it with a C, but we pronounce it with an S sound. Advice. Advice.
这个词的拼写是a-d-v-i-c-e,您可以听到它以S音结尾。拼写是C,发音是S。
Advice is a noun. Advice means "a suggestion." If you give somebody advice, you are giving somebody a suggestion.
Advice是名词,意思是“建议”。如果您give somebody advice,您就是在给某人一个建议。
You are telling somebody what you think they should do. You are telling somebody a good thing for them to do.
您正在告诉某人您认为他们应该做什么。您正在告诉某人一件对他们有益的事情。
You can hear this word in a sentence like this: "I hope you will take my advice when I tell you to study hard." I hope you will take my advice when I tell you to study hard.
例如:"I hope you will take my advice when I tell you to study hard."我希望当我告诉你要努力学习时,你会听从我的建议。
Let's look at that second word now. That second word that I wanted to tell you about is advise. Advise. A-d-v-i-s-e.
现在让我们看看第二个词。我想告诉您的第二个词是advise。
We spell advise with an S, but we pronounce it with a Z sound. Advise. Advise.
拼写是S,但发音时用Z音。
Advise is a verb, and it means "to give suggestions to somebody or to give advice."
Advise 是动词,意思是“给某人建议或提建议”。
You can see that these words mean very similar things. Advice is a noun, and it means "suggestion." And advise is a verb and it means "to give a suggestion or to give advice."
你可以看到这些词的意思非常相似。Advice是名词,意思是“建议”。advise是动词,意思是“给出建议”。
It might be a little bit difficult for you to hear this difference—the difference between advice and advise—but it is an important difference.
你可能有点难以听出这个区别,但这是一个重要的区别。
Of course, you will be able to see the difference when you read these words because the words are spelled differently.
当然,当你读到这些词时,你就能看出区别,因为这些词的拼写不同。
That is advice and advise, a pair of words that are important to know but that can be confusing.
这就是advice和advise,这对词很重要,但可能会让人混淆。
