Synonyms & Differences 近义词辨析

Compared meaning: to give a brief opinion (verb).

比较义项:评论、就……发表意见(动词)。

  • comment 本词

    Neutral and common for giving an opinion on a specific topic, often in writing or in response to something; frequently used with 'on' (comment on).

    语气中性、常用,指就某一具体话题发表意见,常用于书面语或对某事的回应;常与介词 on 搭配(comment on)。

    Reporters asked the mayor to comment on the new tax proposal.

    记者请市长就新的税收提案发表评论。

  • remark

    Often spoken and somewhat more formal or literary in tone; suggests a brief, spontaneous observation, sometimes about someone's appearance or behavior.

    多用于口语,语气略显正式或书面化;指简短、随口说出的看法,有时是针对某人的外貌或行为发表的意见。

    She remarked that the weather had turned surprisingly cold.

    她说天气变得出奇地冷。

Both words mean to give a short opinion. Comment is neutral and common: an opinion on a specific topic, often written, as in 'comment on'. Remark is often spoken and more literary: a brief, spontaneous observation. Comment as a noun is not compared.

两词都指对某事发表简短的意见,但 remark 更常指随口说出的、带有个人印象的评论,而 comment 更常指针对具体话题给出的正式或书面看法。这里不比较 comment 作名词“评论”的用法。
