2

struggle是啥意思

3

by在這裡是啥意思

Answer 1

最佳解答

promiser 較不正式, 隨口答應, 但 commitment 較正式, 通常有誓言, 或文字上的承諾, 如婚禮的一生承諾

struggle 是奮鬥, 努力, 掙扎之意, 此句是指家教與工作的上的價值不同, 必須掙扎努力才能維持兩者間的平衡

3 指公司提供的訓練課程須要員工们承諾額外加班進行

Answer 2

1.promise比較有人用

2.struggle是指鬥爭但這裡應該是指內心的掙扎

3.有些公司提供的一些培訓課程，必須向員工提供額外時間的承諾。

Answer 4

promise 和commitment差很多吧!

前者是人與人之間的默契.

後者是自己內心中的決定

怎麼可能會想錯呢?

Answer 5

要知道一個字大概是什麼意思, 查英漢字典就可以; 要知道一個字要怎麼用或是兩個相近字的差別, 你一定得查英英字典.

1. promise 和commitment的差別:

因為commitment不是動詞, 所以動詞的用法我就不提了, 下面是兩者皆當成名詞的比較.

promise:

A promise is a statement which you make to a person in which you say that you will definitely do something or give them something.

(口頭上的承諾)

commitment:

1. If you make a commitment to do something, you promise that you will do it. (和promise類似的意思)

2. A commitment is something which regularly takes up some of your time because of an agreement you have made or because of responsibilities that you have. (commitment是一件基於協議或是責任所以經常占用你時間的事情. 比如你問題2和3的那兩個句子都是. )

所以, commitment 這個字除了包含了promise的意思, 還有更廣的用法和意義.

2

It has been a struggle to balance my professional and family commitments.

struggle是啥意思?

(在我事業上和家庭上的工作取得平衡一直是一件很困難的事.)

struggle:

An action or activity that is a struggle is very difficult to do.

(a struggle: 一件非常困難的事情)

3

Some training programs offered by the company require an additional time commitment from the employees.

(某些由公司提供的訓練課程需要員工額外承諾會撥出時間來參加.)

by在這裡是啥意思?

offer是提供的意思, 這裡的by是介係詞, offered by the company 就是由公司提供的意思, 過去分詞用來修飾training programs.

an additional time commitment 其中的 additional修飾的對象不是time, 而是commitment.
