上課啦!Course / Lesson / Class / Lecture 差在哪裡?

同樣都是上課,在英文裡面至少就有四個字 course, lesson, class, lecture,而且都是國中程度應該要了解的單字,那就來區別一下,什麼時候該用哪個「課」吧!



class
[klæs] Def. 班級、課程、課堂

三種常用的時機:

 (1) 以時間上來說的「一堂課」

  •  We have seven classes a day. 我們一天有七堂課
  •  I have a class later so I can't go with you. 我等下有堂課,所以不能跟你走
   
(2) 課程的「種類」,一般比較沒那麼學術的課,也多用class

  • Julie has a yoga class on Monday. 茱莉星期一有堂瑜伽課
  • There is a sculpture class in that room. 在那房間裡有雕刻課

(3) 班級,一整群學生的群體

  • They're really considerate. I love this class. 他們真的很貼心,我愛這班
  • This class works hard. No wonder teachers love them. 這班很認真,難怪老師們愛他們



lesson
[ˈlesn] Def. 課、教訓

(1) 課本中的「一課」,像是「第三課」

  • Please preview Lesson Two today. 今天請預習第二課
  • I have finished this lesson so we'll have a quiz next week. 我已經上完這一課,所以我們下週會有小考

(2) 提醒、教訓

  • Did you learn the lesson from the mistake? 你有從錯誤中學到教訓嗎?
  • People need to learn the lesson from the history. 人們需要從歷史學到教訓

常用詞組:

  • learn a lesson  學到一課/教訓
  • teach someone a lesson  給某人一個教訓


course
[kɔrs] Def. 一門完整的課程

  • I took a history course last semester. 我上學期修了一門歷史課
  • Roger will get his master degree after taking these three courses. 羅傑會在修完這三門課後拿到他的碩士學位


lecture 
(1) 講課,通常用在「一次性」的演講,或是客座的演講,比較不是規律性的課

  • A famous professor will come and give us a lecture. 一位有名的教授將會來給我們講一堂課

(2) 授課,老師的講課

  • I don't like that teacher's lecture. 我不喜歡那個老師的講課
  • Celin prepares the lecture with creative materials. 席琳用有創意的材料準備講課
