Andy-Ru Posted May 27, 2007 at 11:43 AM Report Posted May 27, 2007 at 11:43 AM Hi again! What's the difference between 强大，强壮and力量? Thanks Quote
againstwind Posted May 27, 2007 at 02:58 PM Report Posted May 27, 2007 at 02:58 PM Simply speaking, 强大 and 强壮 are adjective, while 力量 is a noun. 强大:formidable, mighty, powerful, strong It usually modifies abstract things not , like 强大的国家, 强大的军事实力, 强大的力量. 强壮: robust, muscly, strong. It indicates sb. marked by great physical power, capable of exerting great physical force. e.g. 强壮的臂膀，强壮的身体 力量 corresponds to power or force. e.g. 请赐予我力量！ 愿力量与你同在！ Quote
Quest Posted May 27, 2007 at 06:51 PM Report Posted May 27, 2007 at 06:51 PM Simply speaking, 强大 and 强壮 are nouns, while 力量 is an adjective. you mixed up "nouns" and "adjective". Quote
Andy-Ru Posted May 27, 2007 at 11:54 PM Author Report Posted May 27, 2007 at 11:54 PM Thanks guys!! Your answers have cleared things up a lot!! I spent ages trying to understand the differenes, but the dictionary kept coming up with "strong" for all three, so I was like "huh?". But it's all good now. Thanks!! Andy Quote
