Индекс фразы: 1-400, 401-800, 801-1200

У всех этих глаголов есть одно общее для всех значение — учить. Но учить можно что-то или кого-то чему-то, а это уже разные вещи. Также можно учить уроки, а можно учить (запоминать) стих. Здесь тоже есть определенная разница.

Сегодня мы рассмотрим основные английские глаголы, связанные с обучением, и попробуем разобраться, чем они отличаются и в каком случае употреблять каждый из них.

Чтобы получить общее представление, для начала посмотрим на небольшую сравнительную схемку:

Разница между learn, teach, study и memorize

Learn и study путают чаще всего, потому что на русский язык они могут переводиться совершенно одинаково. Потому что в русском в разных ситуациях используются одинаковые глаголы. Например, «Я учу французский» может означать как то, что я учу язык самостоятельно, занимаюсь им не регулярно, осваиваю на практике во время путешествия, так и то, что я учу язык в каком-то учебном заведении. В английском глаголы, связанные с учебой, используются по-другому, но обо всем по порядку.

Употребление learn

Глагол learn имеет более широкое употребление. Он обозначает получение знаний любым способом и о чем-угодно. К примеру, вы впервые путешествуете по Италии. Каждый день, находясь здесь, вы узнаете что-то новое. В конце путешествия вы можете сказать «I learned so much about Italy!» (Я так много узнал об Италии!). Или более конкретно: «I learned about the culture of Italy.» (Я узнал о культуре Италии»).

То есть learn используется также, когда речь идет об осведомленности о чем-либо:

He is learning a lot about patient care in his nursing classes. — Он много узнаёт об уходе за пациентами (=учится ухаживать за пациентами) на уроках медсестер.

She was shocked to learn of the death of her neighbor. — Она была потрясена, узнав о смерти своей соседки.

I have learned that feeling empty sometimes is okay. — Я понял (=обнаружил, усвоил), что иногда нормально чувствовать себя опустошенным.

Обратите внимание, что после learn может употребляться that. Также часто встретить how.

You can learn how to play the guitar. — Ты можешь научиться (как) играть на гитаре.

She learned how to do her job very quickly. — Она научилась выполнять свою работу быстро.

Когда мы говорим об обучении, которое подразумевает обязательную практику, используется именно learn:

He had to learn how to speak in public. — Ему нужно было научиться разговаривать на публике.

I‘m learning how to drive. — Я учусь водить.

Learn употребляется с прямым дополнениям, когда мы говорим о получении знаний или конкретного навыка, особенно когда вас кто-то обучает или тренирует. Самые частые дополнения — существительные skill (навык), technique (техника), craft (мастерство), language (язык) и непосредственно сами названия языков.

The course provides an opportunity to learn new skills. — Курс дает возможность получить новые навыки.

Ireland is a popular destination for those interested in learning English. — Ирландия — популярное направление путешествий для тех, кто заинтересован в изучении английского.

Также learn может употребляться в значении «запомнить»:

I’ve just learned a new song in a foreign language. — Я только что выучил песню на иностранном языке.

Еще несколько разных примеров употребления learn для закрепления:

Примеры употребления learn в предложениях

I’ve learned a lot about machines from my father. — Я многое узнал о машинах от своего отца.

A smart person learns from his/her mistakes. — Умный человек учится на своих ошибках.

All children must learn their parents are fallible, not perfect. — Все дети должны узнать, что их родители совершают ошибки, что они не идеальны.

How many words can a parrot learn? — Cколько слов может выучить попугай?

As a child I learned lots of poems by heart. — В детстве я учил наизусть множество стихов.

I learned how to fix computers in prison. — В тюрьме я научился взламывать компьютеры.

He learned to make this dish to impress me when we were first dating. — Он научился готовить это блюдо, чтобы произвести на меня впечатление в первые месяцы нашего знакомства.

Употребление study

Глагол study подразумевает сам процесс получения знаний (когда вы что-то читаете, запоминаете, исследуете и пр.). Если студент/ученик сидит за столом, окруженный горой книг, что-то ищет и выписывает, про него скажут: he is studying.

study: пример употребления

In order to learn English, I had to study really hard. — Чтобы освоить английкий, мне пришлось учиться очень усердно.

She spent an hour every night studying her new vocabulary words. — Она тратит по часу каждую ночь на изучение новых слов.

I was studying for my test all night. — Я готовился к тесту всю ночь.

The rehearsals make it difficult for him to study for law school exams. — Репетиции мешают ему готовиться к экзаменам в юридическую школу.

В перечисленных примерах говорится о подготовке к экзаменам — это как раз тот процесс, когда человек сидит с книгами или учебными материалами, внимательно читает и изучает, пытается понять и запомнить информацию. Поэтому в этом случае используется именно study.

Study используется, когда процесс обучения проходит в учебных заведениях:

Liza studied medicine in London. — Лиза изучала медицину в Лондоне.

My brother’s studying to be an accountant. — Мой брат учится на бухгалтера.

Также часто study употребляется, когда речь идет об изучении чего-либо внимательно.

I haven’t had time to study the proposals yet. — У меня пока не было времени изучить предложение.

The lawyer wanted time to study the contract. — Адвокат потребовал время, чтобы изучить контракт.

She studied his face. — Она изучала его лицо.

Еще одна важная деталь? чтобы понять разницу между learn и study.

«I studied English» может означать, что вы посещали занятия по английскому. Или, например, обучались сами через приложение, уроки на YouTube или специализированные сайты.

Но при этом могло получиться так, что у вас возникли определенные трудности при изучении, и вы так и не смогли освоить язык, научиться на нем разговаривать. В таком случае вы уже не можете сказать «I learned English», потому что это значило бы, что вы научились использовать язык, применять его на практике.

Вот еще одна хорошая для понимания фраза:

I studied but I did not learn anything. — Я учился, но ничему не научился.

Возвращаясь к первому примеру (I learned so much about Italy!), в данном случае вы не могли бы использовать studied, потому что не читали книги, не изучали и запоминали факты, не проходили учебные курсы по теме и т. д.

Таким образом, study — это лишь один из способов получения знаний (learning), но не единственный.

Разница между learn и study: примеры употребления

Memorize

Следующий глагол — memorize. Он обозначает «учить» в смысле «заучивать», «запоминать»:

In school we had to memorize Rudyard Kipling’s poem If. — В школе мы должны были выучить стихотворение Редьярда Киплинга «Если…».

I have memorized all students’ names and photos. — Я запомнил лица и имена всех учеников.

They were memorizing entire poems in just a few minutes. — Они за несколько минут заучивали целые стихотворения.

Don’t write your password down, memorize it. — Не записывай свой пароль, запомни его.

Memorizing one quote does not make you a renaissance man. — Заучивание одной цитаты не делает тебя человеком эпохи Возрождения.

There’s no way I can memorize all these formulas before the test. — Для меня нереально запомнить все эти формулы перед тестом.

I study the flowers, try to memorize them. — Я изучаю цветы, пытаюсь их запомнить.

Memorize является синонимом learn, когда речь идет о запомнинании. Есть также выражение learn by heart (уччить наизусть).

Teach

Teach — это уже совершенно другой глагол. Вы не учитесь сами, а обучаете других. Это можно делать как официально (в школе/колледже/университете), так и неофициально.

My mother is currently teaching Mathematics at public school. — Моя мама в данный момент преподает математику в частной школе.

She has taught for 34 years. — Она преподает 34 года.

He is teaching Spanish to the children. — Он обучает детей испанскому языку.

She is teaching me to be a better person. — Она учит меня, как стать лучше.

Who taught you to cook? — Кто научил тебя готовить?

The graduates from this educational establishment could teach any subject. — Студент, который заканчивал это учебное заведение, мог преподавать любой предмет.

Если вы не уверены, что усвоили разницу между learn, study и memorize, посмотрите ролик по теме. Там вы найдете другие примеры употребления всех этих глаголов.

Learning a new language is well-known to improve cognitive ability, but what about expanding vocabulary in your own native language? Many of us fall out of the habit of learning new words as it’s often synonymous with our school years meaning we don’t always actively seek out new words to improve our range of vocabulary in adult life. However, developing the habit of learning new words can be beneficial (and enjoyable) in many areas of your life.

How Learning New Words Can Make You Smarter

A recent study looked at the impact that learning new vocabulary has on different areas of the brain. The correlation between vocabulary, intelligence and real-world ability has been found to exist from a very early age right through to adulthood. It primarily stretches our working memory as well as our ability to communicate more efficiently with the world around us, subtly opening up our perspectives and ways of communication.

Our working memory can only hold so much information so learning new words actually helps our brain to create more ways of retaining information. Each new word we learn gets placed into our long-term memory. While this may seem to be counterproductive, it actually allows us to associate much more information with each word, meaning our brain doesn’t need to dredge through and reach for information in order to express ourselves better. In other words, we are able to express more easily.

The concept of increasing vocabulary can be applied to whole spheres of knowledge and experience. So in effect, a large vocabulary is a powerful coping strategy that enhances our general cognitive ability and increases intelligence.

Ways To Make Learning New Words A Habit

We may think our vocabulary range is pretty wide, but it can always be widened even further. Making a habit of finding new words and putting them into practice will go a long way to increasing your brain capacity and expanding your mind to the world around you.

1. Really notice new words: We come across new words daily whether through reading, watching TV or talking with others; it may surprise you how often we skim over the new word or just second guess what it means through context.

Alternatively, there may be many words we think we know but when asked to give a true definition we may struggle. Making a conscious effort to look up any words we’re unsure of and understand their meaning will go towards making sure we will always use those words in the right way with confidence.

2. Read more: Reading is a great way to increase vocabulary if done in the right way. Make sure you read something interesting to you with the intent of questioning which words you don’t fully understand. Reading on a regular basis will expose you to many more words.

3. Use a dictionary: An obvious one, but more often than not a dictionary is only pulled out once in a blue moon to check a word. One habit is to pick a random word to learn each day, write it down and find ways to use it in conversation. Circle words you’ve learned and flick back through it every so often to refresh and test yourself on the highlighted words.
