sick 和 ill 的区别是作定语时用 sick,作表语可以用 ill。
sick 和 ill 的用法如下:
1、作定语:一般使用 sick
Doctors have charge of the sick people.
2、作表语:可以使用 ill(英)或 sick(美)
She was ill(sick) for a week,and during that week heate nothing.
3、sick意思是生病时,一般用作表语或定语。如果意思是无聊,只能用作表语,后面是接介词of
Mary is sick of his job.
4、如果 ill 这意味着生病,不需要定语,但它意味着坏(bad)或有害的(harmful)只能用作定语,不能用作表语。
The Toms had ill luck.
5、表示病人 thesick,而不用 theill
The sick and the aged need our help.
6、如果 ill 它是指身体或精神上的不适或病等,一般用作表语。
Tom was very ill for a time,but he managed to pull through.
在一些短语中,两者不能换用:sickpay 病假津贴、sickleave 病假、speakill of 说某人的坏话,thinkill of 认为??不好。
