易混淆對比

What is the difference between "Achievement" and similar words?How to choose "Achievement" vs alternatives?

achievement vs accomplishment

「achievement」通常指透過努力、技能或勇氣達成的顯著或值得讚揚的成果,強調其重要性和社會認可度。而「accomplishment」則更廣泛地指任何成功完成的事情,無論大小,有時更側重於完成任務的過程和個人滿足感。

achievement vs success

「achievement」指的是一個具體的、已達成的成果或目標。而「success」是一個更廣泛、更抽象的狀態或概念,指達成目標、獲得財富、名聲或個人滿足的結果。一次 achievement 可以構成 success 的一部分。

achievement vs feat

「achievement」是成就的通用詞,適用範圍廣。而「feat」特指需要非凡的勇氣、技能、力量或努力才能完成的壯舉或功績,通常更引人注目、更戲劇化,常用於體能或技術上的非凡表現。

常見錯誤

What are common mistakes with "Achievement"?Which "Achievement" sentences look correct but are wrong?

×He made a great achievement.

He achieved a great success. / He made a great accomplishment.

In English, 'make an achievement' is not a natural collocation. We typically 'achieve' something or 'make an accomplishment'. 'Achievement' is more commonly used with verbs like 'be', 'represent', or 'celebrate'.

×This is a big achievement for me.

This is a major/significant/great achievement for me.

While 'big' is understandable, it is considered informal and less precise when describing 'achievement'. Native speakers more commonly use adjectives like 'major', 'significant', 'great', 'remarkable', or 'notable' to convey importance.

×I feel an achievement.

I feel a sense of achievement. / I feel accomplished.

'Achievement' is a countable noun referring to the thing that was accomplished. The emotional state is expressed as 'a sense of achievement' or the adjective 'accomplished'.

×His achievement is very high.

His achievement is very impressive. / He has achieved a lot.

The adjective 'high' is not typically used to modify 'achievement'. We describe achievements with adjectives related to quality, importance, or impressiveness, not physical height.

×We must achievement our goals.

We must achieve our goals.

This is a confusion between the noun 'achievement' and the verb 'achieve'. 'Achievement' cannot be used as a verb. The correct verb form is 'achieve'.

×He got many achievements.

He has many achievements. / He has accomplished a lot.

While 'get' is a versatile verb, it sounds informal and imprecise with 'achievement'. The more natural verbs are 'have' (to possess) or verbs like 'accomplish' in a different sentence structure.
