say_speak_tell_talk_都有“

say speak tell talk，都有“說”得意思，那么它們得區(qū)別是什么呢？

首先來看一道題：

—What did he __________ ?

—I'm sorry, I can't hear it.

A.say B.speak C.tell D.talk

要弄清楚這道題，就得知道四個選項得意思和用法，現在咱們一起看一下。

1. say,強調得是說話得內容，比如說say something，一般用作及物動詞。
2. speak是單方得說或者講，強調得是說得動作，一般用作不及物動詞。但是如果用作及物動詞，后面可以跟某種語言，比如說speak English/Chinese（說英語/漢語）。

3. tell得意思是告訴，用作及物動詞，比如：tell a story（講故事）。
4. talk強調雙方得交談，用作不及物動詞，比如說talk about something（談論某事）或者talk with somebody（和某人交談）。

總結如下圖：

所以，上面得題得答案出來了么？

—What did he __________ ? 他說什么了？

—I'm sorry, I can't hear it.對不起，我聽不見。

答案是：A。
