题目

enquiry与inquiry用法有啥区别?

答案

一般而言,用inquiry来说「调查」,enquiry说「询问」.x0d例如军事调查法庭,英文是court of inquiry,不宜称为court of enquiry,「协助警方调查」,英文是to help the police with their inquiries,这个inquiries也不宜改作enquiries.x0d而一般机构的询问处,英文是enquiry office或enquiry counter,不宜称为inquiry office或inquiry counter.说要问问汇率高低,英文是I will make enquiries about the exchange rates,这个enquiries也不宜改作inquiries.x0dEnquiry、inquiry这两个字的动词enquire、inquire,用法上也是有同样分别的.
