同近义词辨析

attempt, strive, endeavour, try

这组词都有“试图,努力,力图”的意思,其区别是:

attempt较正式用词,侧重已经开始,且希望完成,但常隐含着不一定有预期的结果。

strive和endeavour一样,表示付出巨大努力,但strive侧重劳累与紧张,而不强调努力的结果。

endeavour正式用词,指尽最大努力、认真地克服困难去做某事。

try普通用词,可与attempt换用,但强调努力或尝试,后跟不定式表示努力或争取;后跟动名词表示尝试。

trouble, struggle, pains, effort, endeavour

这组词都有“努力”的意思,其区别是:

trouble和pains均侧重在面临困难或阻力时所作的努力,但强调在努力时的细心和谨慎,相比之下,pains更适合表示尽力的努力。

struggle指为克服困难或阻力所作的努力,也指因决心、意志或干劲而产生的极大努力。

pains

effort通常指完成某特定任务所需付出的或大或小的努力,可指一次的努力,也可指坚持不懈的努力。

endeavour指持久的,坚持不懈的,甚至是终身的努力,强调努力的认真与决心。

endeavour

endeavour: [14] Despite its plausible appearance, endeavour is not a borrowing from French or Latin but a purely English creation. It was coined from the Middle English phrase put in dever, which was a partial translation of Old French mettre en deveir, literally ‘put in duty’, hence ‘make it one’s duty to do something’ (deveir, ancestor of modern French devoir ‘duty’, came ultimately from Latin dēbēre ‘owe’, source of English debit and debt). In the 14th century the last two words were joined together to form the verb endeavour ‘make an effort’.=> debit, debt

endeavour

chiefly British English spelling of endeavor (q.v.); for spelling, see -or. Related: Endeavoured; endeavoring; endeavours. The U.S. space shuttle was spelled this way because it was named for the HMS Endeavour, Capt. Cook's ship.
