difference between keep and keep on


  • you were right. Both "keep talking" and "keep on talking" are correct.

  • 'Keep talking' means the same as 'keep on talking'. 'Keep fighting for your cause.' means the same as 'Keep on fighting for your cause.' 'Keep' and 'keep on in these cases are interchangeable and suggest that one must persevere in an action. If you tell someone, "Keep working hard!' or "Keep on working hard." you are encouraging them in something that requires perseverance. 

    Whereas the other way of using 'keep' is to guard 'something' such as an object or a secret or thought. "Keep your porch light on at night." "Keep the money in your wallet." "Keep your thoughts to yourself."
    "Can you keep a secret?" You can never use 'keep on' in these circumstances.

difference between awareness / aware and consciousness / conscious

awarenessnoun(танин мэдэх ухаан, танин мэдрэх байдал)
  • We are all conscious but we are not all aware.
  • Animals are aware, like of their surroundings and can act accordingly, like if a wolf is after them, they know to run
knowing something; knowing that something exists and is important; being interested in something
        ---- There was an almost complete lack of awareness of the issues involved.
consciousnessnoun(ухаан бодол, ухаан санаа) Consciousness
I think we all have a little voice inside us that will guide us. It may be God, I don't know. But I think that if we shut out all the noise and clutter from our lives and listen to that voice, it will tell us the right thing to do.
  • We are all conscious but we are not all aware.
1 the state of being able to use your senses and mental powers to understand what is happening
        ---- I can't remember any more—I must have lost consciousness.
2 the state of being aware of something
         ---- his consciousness of the challenge facing him
3 the ideas and opinions of a person or group
          ---- issues affecting the popular consciousness of the time

    noun                            adjective
awareness - noun()                 ---- aware adjective()
consciousness - noun()      --- conscious adjective()


 difference between consciousness / conscious and awareness/ aware


  • Animals are aware, like of their surroundings and can act accordingly, like if a wolf is after them, they know to run, it's innate(төрөлхийн, угийн). Consciousness is when you are aware of your surroundings and you can also process the information that allows you to take rational(бодлоготой, зүй зохистой) actions, reserved for higher functioning life forms, like humans.

  • Consciousness is having a gut(гэдэс, гүзээ) feeling. Intuition(зөн совин, зөн билэг) as some would say. It is that warning feeling you get when something is about to go wrong.

    Awareness is instinct(төрөлхийн зан ааш). Knowing what is going on around you and what to do when something happens.

    Animals are both.. They have both characteristics more than humans do because they have simple brains. They are not as complex as we are

  • It's a difference of degree, you are conscious while you are standing in a crowd but you may not be aware that your pocket is being picked. When one is aware they know what is going on around them, when you're conscious you are only awake.

  • Quote on Consciousness
    I think we all have a little voice inside us that will guide us. It may be God, I don't know. But I think that if we shut out all the noise and clutter from our lives and listen to that voice, it will tell us the right thing to do.
    By Christopher Reeve

    Quote on Awareness
    May our heart's garden of awakening bloom with hundreds of flowers.
    By Thich Nhat Hanh

    Love & Blessings

  • I think small babies can be consciousness but not aware. Maybe even animals do the same

    Conscious = Mentally active
    Awareness = Conscious of self. (Self conscious)

  • We are all conscious but we are not all aware.

  • Often I use the terms consciousness and awareness interchangably, but it depends on the context and what is being spoken about.

    There may be differences between consciousness and awareness, or there may be no differences between consciousness and awareness...whoever uses the terms, you must ask what they mean to understand what they are saying.

    Living consciously is another concept entirely...living consciously also does not necessarily mean doing anything, just being aware of what is happening - as opposed to being unconscious of what is going on.

difference between nope and no

nope exclamation "Nope" is informal and 'Nope' is very rarely written. You can't say "There's nope milk in the fridge"
(informalused to say “no”
     ---- “Have you seen my pen?” “Nope.”



difference between no and nope


  • "Nope" is very informal; slang. It originated as an extra emphatic "no", with the extra consonant on the end to make sure the listener heard the word correctly. 
    But it's not standard English.
    It replaces 'no' ONLY in the single word answer, "No". You can't say "There's nope milk in the fridge" or "Johnny had nope clean shoes". 

difference between ordinary, usual, typical, normal, common

ordinaryadjective(жирийн, ердийн)"Ordinary" suggests that nothing is unusual or special about it. the soup tastes ordinary" (the soup isn't special, it's just the same as a million other soups).
[usually before noun] not unusual or different in any way
        --- ordinary people like you and me
usual adjective(дасал болсон, байнгийн) "usual" -- This is slightly different because it implies habit or regular behaviour. For example, my usual bus would be the one I always take, at the same time, every day.
that happens or is done most of the time or in most cases
       ---- She sat in her usual seat at the back.
typicaladjective(байдаг л нэг, жирийн л нэгtypical is more neutral and negative connotations 
1 having the usual qualities or features of a particular type of person, thing, or group
       ---- a typical Italian café
2 happening in the usual way; showing what something is usually like
       ---- A typical working day for me begins at 7:30.
normaladjective(хэвийн)In general, I would say that "normal" suggests that nothing is wrong or strange or especially bad about the thing. Here's the best example I can think of -- the parents of a new baby would be relieved to hear that the baby is "normal" (it has the right number of arms and legs and fingers and toes and so on)
