The difference between "speak" and "talk"

15

arkblue">In a lot of cases 'speak' and 'talk' can be used interchangeably, for example:"speak" thng c dng trong tnh hung trnh trng hoc nghim trng hn.


25/65

"Speak" is more often used when the situation is more formal or serious."Speak" thng c dng trong tnh hung trnh trng hoc nghim trng hn.Ex: Ispoke to my boss about a pay rise. The Presidentspoke about the new environmental laws.

You could remember here that other words which share the roots of 'speak' such as 'speaker'and 'speech' are also used in more formal settings .When we are replying to a question where the speaker uses 'speak' or 'talk' we reply using the sameverb: "What did Peter talk about at the party last night?" "Hetalked about going to college next year." "What did theyspeak about at the meeting this morning." "Theyspoke about the new working hours and schedules."There is one specific situation where we use 'speak' only and that is when we are talkingabout languages: Do youspeakItalian?

Shespeaksseveral languages. Her mother onlyspokeRussian before she learnt English.

Here are a few idioms using "speak" and "talk":to speak one's mind : to say what you thinkto speak for itself : to be evident, obviousto speak too soon : to be imprudent about giving an opinionto speak volumes : to say a lot about somethingto be on speaking terms : to be friendly with someone without being very closemoney talks : if you have money you can make things happennow you're talking : now you are saying something important or useful

3 road - streetAroadusually runs between two more distant points, such as between two towns. A street isdescribed as being a paved road or highway - in a city, town, or village, especially one linedwith houses, shops, or other buildings. The implication is that if a street does not have thesethings, it will probably be called a road. When a town expands, sometimes what was formerlya road will become a street. The word road is the more general term, though, and can be

applied to a street. Street is the narrower term.

4 What is the difference betweenproperty and attribute?An attribute is a quality or character ascribed to or considered to belong to, or be inherent in, aperson or thing. A property is a quality or characteristic belonging to a person or thing, with itsoriginal use implying ownership, and also either being essential or special. However, property is nowused to mean a quality or characteristic in general without reference to its being essential or special.In many contexts, these words can now be used interchangeably.

against a loss. Ensure can be used in all other senses, especially 'to make certain'. Ensure can alsoimply a guarantee. Then there is a third word, assure, which means to make a promise or convince.Assure also implies the removal of doubt and suspense within someone's mind. Here are someexamples of usage for assure, ensure, and insure: I assured him that I would not clean out his tooland hardware collection. She looked back to assure that no dogs were following her. / The

government ensured the safety of the troops during the time they would be airlifted out of thecountry. We will ensure that the abusive coach will not return next year. / She was insured againstloss in the homeowner's policy. The valuables are insured.

Bi- and Semi-

The English prefixes bi- and semi-are often mixed up by native speakers. A semi-annual readingof this lesson will help more than a bi-annual one.

Bi-Bi-comes from the Latin meaning two. When used with a temporal word, bi-means "every two" or"every other".

Ex: This magazine is published bi-weekly, on the 1st and 15th of the month.

Ex: Congressional elections are held biennially, on even-numbered years.


34/65

Ex: The U.S. celebrated the bicentennial of its 1776 founding in 1976.

Semi-Semi- comes from the Latin meaning half. When used with a temporal word, semi-means "twice".

Ex: Our semi-annual meetings are in January and July.

I get paid semi-monthly, on the 5th and 19th of each month.

The semi-weekly deliveries occur on Monday and Thursday.

Notes:The confusion between bi- and semi-occurs because both prefixes are related to the concept oftwo. But bi-means something that happens every other (week, month...), or every two (weeks,months...), while semi-indicates something that happens twice every (week, month) or every

half (week, month)
