要是和你说,有些人仅仅在study English,却没在learn English,你信不信?如果你感到更加困惑了,那就随着小编的解析,让自己对这两个词有更深入地把握和区分吧。
首先就是老规矩,先让我们知道learn和study的意思是什么。
learn
to gain knowledge of a subject or skill, by experience, by studying it, or by being taught;
例句:
1. I learn English well, because Robert is a very good teacher.
2. I didn't tell her the truth. She would learn it for herself soon enough.
不难发现,learn强调的是获得知识,内容或信息等结果。那study强调的是什么呢?
study
to spend time reading, going to classes etc in order to learn about a subject
例句:
1. I study English, and Robert is teaching me.
2. I was studying English at home last night.
简单来说,study强调的是学习、研究等行为的举动或过程。
所以,learn和study这两个词的意思是不同的。一句简单的中文“学习”无法涵盖这两个单词的正确含义。learn特指通过学习获得了知识,study特指学习某个东西的举动或过程。一个强调结果,学到东西,另外一个强调过程,只是在学东西。
为了让你更好地理解这两个词的差异,你还可以看看以下这些例句:
1. If you study hard, you will learn English well.
(如果你努力学,一定能学好英语)
2. I’ve learnt nothing, because I study English in a negative way.
(我什么都没学到,因为我学英语的方式很消极)
3. I’ve learnt something great through my hard study of English.
(通过我努力的英语学习,我学到了一些很棒的东西)

你能更好地感觉到这种差别了吗?study仅仅是做出学的举动,如果你只想study不想learn,注定就学不会英语了……慢着,还有个问题,你发现例句3里面的study是名词了吗?
其实,除了意思上的区别之外,study还可以作为名词使用。
study (noun):
when you spend time learning, especially at home or by yourself rather than during school;
a piece of work that is done to find out more about a particular subject or problem, and usually includes a written report.
例句:
1. I know 10 ways to improve your study skills.
2. This study shows that women still get paid a lot less than men.
learn不可直接作为名词使用,但study可以。另外还需注意,study除了有“学”的意思之外还有“研究”的意思,比如例句2.
