Question

这两个英文单词有什么区别呢？

如何区别wide和bread？
两者都有宽的意思啊，麻烦讲详细点！

Answer 1

应该是broad .
wide和broad是同义词，在表示街道、河流多宽时，两个单词都可用。如：Canal Street is very wide.(运河街很宽) The main street of the village was broad.(村子里的大街很宽)
当谈到某样东西有多宽时要用wide。如：The door is three feet wide.(门有三英尺宽)
指胸部肩部宽时多用broad表示。如：He was tall, broad-shouldered, very handsome.(他高个子，肩很宽，很英俊)

此外，二者都可以用于引申意义，wide表示“广泛的、渊博的、丰富的”等等。如：He has wide interest.(他有广泛的兴趣) He has a wide knowledge of French history.(他对法国历史有渊博的知识) An executive should have wide business experience.(一个主管人员应该有丰富的商业经验)

broad表示“宽阔的，广大的”等等。如：He has a broad mind.(他有广阔的胸怀) The broad masses of the people of the world ant to be friends with us.(世界上的广大群众愿和我们友好)
