insist和persist有什么区别?
2个回答
insist=in + sist,“坚持做一件事”,搭配insist on persist=per （through）+ sist,“坚持反复做同一件事”,搭配persist in 英语里的insist 和persist两个词.在英汉词典里查都是"坚持"的意思,用汉语翻译根本看不出这两个词的区别.而这种区别如果你查询或者使用英英词典的话,一开始就会明白.请看在Longman Web Dictionary 中对insist的解释是：to say firmly and repeatedly that something is true,especially when other people think it may not be true（尽管别人说某件事情不对,也执意要说而且是重复不断地说那件事情是对的）；而对persist的解释是：to continue to do something,although this is difficult,or other people warn you not to do it.（继续不断地做某件事情,尽管这件事可能很难,或他人劝你不要做）.两者的差别通过查英英词典就一目了然了.
