v. (动词)
talk business, talk shop
  • 这两个短语意思不同:talk business是“讲正经事”的意思; 而talk shop作“讲行话”解。试比较:
  • They have a habit of talking shop.
  • 他们一开口总是三句话不离本行。
  • We are willing to listen if you are going to talk business.
  • 讲点正经的,我们倒愿意听听。
    • talk, chat, converse, speak
  • 这四个词都可表示“交谈”。其区别是：
  • speak含义较广,较正式,可指连贯、系统地发言、讲话,也可指支离破碎地交谈,还可指自言自语; converse常指在谈话中交换意见或想法,且表示在几个人之间的交谈; chat往往指以友好的态度,谈一些不重要的事情; talk强调“交谈”多半是指数人之间的交谈,包括严肃的讨论,也表示轻松的闲聊。例如:
  • The two friends sat in a corner and chatted about the weather.那两位朋友坐在一个旮旯里谈论天气。
  • I can converse with anyone about anything.我可以和任何人谈论任何事情。
  • He is talking to a friend.他在和一个朋友交谈。
    • talk over, discuss
  • 两者都有“讨论”的意思。其区别在于:discuss强调气氛通常是融洽的,目的是“达成共识”; talk over强调详尽透彻的过程。例如:
  • We discussed holding the sports meet next week.我们讨论了下周开运动会的问题。
  • I want to talk this over with you.这件事我要和你商量一下。
    • talk, say, speak, tell
  • 这组词的共同含义是“说,告诉”。其区别是：
  • say指“说出”,着重指说出具体的内容,一般用作及物动词,后面的宾语是所说的话; speak指“说话,发言”,着重开口说话的动作,一般用作不及物动词,其宾语通常是表示某种语言名称的词; talk指“讲话,谈论”,意思与speak相近,在一些情况下可以通用,通常talk用作不及物动词; tell指“告诉”,是直接给对方讲或以间接的方式转诉某事,在多数情况下, tell的后面通常接双宾语,在少数情况下可用简单宾语。试体会下面这几个词的用法和含义:He had talked for a long time, but he spoke so fast that we couldn't catch what he said.他讲了很长时间,但他说得太快了,我们没听清他讲了些什么。
  • Mr. Green was invited to speak〔talk〕 to us on Greek philosophy.格林先生应邀给我们讲希腊哲学。
  • He told me the news.他告诉了我这个消息。
  • He told me that he was coming.他告诉我说他就来。
    • talk to, speak to, tell off
  • 这三个短语都可表示“责备”“斥责”。其区别是：
  • speak to是指某人做错了事,因此说说他,是温和地责备,轻微地申斥,含有规劝的意味; talk to的意思是“训斥”“劝诫”; tell off表示述说某人的坏行为。例如:
  • I'll see that he is spoken to about it.关于那件事我想我得找人和他谈谈。
  • I'll talk to him.我会训斥他的。

    • n. (名词)
    talk, address, lecture, oration, report, speech
  • 1.在这组词中, address, speech, talk, oration四个词是同义词, lecture和report的词义与其他四个词的词义差异较大。

  • Professor Black will give us a lecture on English literature tomorrow afternoon.布莱克教授明天下午将给我们做关于英国文学的演讲。
  • His mother gave him a lecture for getting up late.他妈妈因为他睡懒觉而训斥了他一顿。
  • 注意这六个词中只有lecture不可与make连用。

  • The manager had just given the company's annual report.经理刚做了公司的年度报告。
  • 2.address, speech, talk, oration四个词的共同含义是“当众讲话”。其区别是：
  • ①speech和talk是普通用语, address和oration是正式用语。
  • ②address和oration用于正式隆重的场合,经过充分准备,听众较多,篇幅较长。这两者中, oration比address更正式,更隆重,人更多,篇幅更长。例如：
  • The minister's address will be broadcast at 8 o'clock.部长的讲话将于8时广播。
  • Lincoln's Gettysburg Address was an oration.林肯的盖茨堡讲演是一篇雄辩有力的演说辞。
  • 这两个词含义上的区别是：address强调演说人的身份或地位高,而oration则强调演说人口才好,演说有煽动性,雄辩有力,词藻华丽。
  • ③speech和talk的区别是：speech多用于正式场合,也可用于非正式场合; 而talk多用于非正式场合,也可用于正式场合。speech一般是经过准备的也可不经过准备; 而talk一般是不经过准备的。speech的措辞一般是庄重的; 而talk是较为随便的,讲话方式也较自由,甚至也可以是对话。例如：
  • Please tell us what you think in a few simple words, we don't want a speech.请用简短的话说明你的意思,不要演说。
  • We enjoy freedom of speech.我们有言论自由。
  • We had a long talk about it.关于此事,我们作了一次长谈。
  • He gave us a very interesting talk on Yugoslavia.他给我们作了一场饶有兴趣的关于南斯拉夫的报告。
  • ④speech除作“讲演”解之外,还有“讲稿”“讲演风格”的含义,而另外三个词无此含义。例如：
  • His speech was sent to the newspaper in advance.他的讲话稿事先就送报社去了。
  • Her speech is informal and filled with colloquialisms.她的讲话常是非正式的,很口语化。
    • talk, dialogue
  • 两者均可表示“口头交流”。其区别是：

  • The novel is written in dialogue.这本小说是用对话体写的。
  • More dialogues between world leaders is needed.世界各国领导人之间需要多交换意见。
    • address，speech，lecture，oration，report，talk
  • 这些名词均含“演讲，讲话，报告”之意。
  • address正式用词，指在庄严隆重的场合作精心准备的演讲或正式演说。
  • speech普通用词，指一般的发言或讲话，可以是事先准备的，也可以是即席的。

  • chat指熟人之间非常随便的交谈，强调谈话的亲密和非正式性。
    • say，speak，state，talk，tell，utter
  • 这些动词均有“说、讲”之意。

  • speak侧重于说话动作的本身，着重说话的能力而不在内容，比如能说某种语言。
  • state较正式用词，通常指用明确的语言或文字着重地叙述事实，既强调内容又注重语气。
  • talk普通用词，侧重指与人交谈时的连续说话，可指单方面较长谈话，和speak一样，着重说活动作而不侧重内容。
  • tell指告诉或讲述。
