raise 和rear 区别

我们可以从下面的解释中寻找答案：

一，raise 英[re?z] 美[rez]

vt. 引起，抱起;提高（价格等）;养育;筹集

n. （工资、薪金的）提升;增加;加价;筹措

vi. 上升，升高

二，rear 英[r(r)] 美[r?r]

vt. 饲养;养育;抚养;养育

vt.& vi. 抬起

n. 后部，背面，背后;臀部;（舰队或军队的）后方，后尾，殿后部队;

这两个词主要在“抚养”这个词义上有区别，请看英文意义上的区别：

raise:

chiefly US : 1.to take care of and teach (a child) : to bring up or rear (a child)

eg: They have raised their children to be well-mannered.

2.Some kids are raised on (a diet of) junk food.

to keep and take care of (animals or crops)

He raises [=breeds] chickens on his farm. ?

They're raising [=growing] corn this year.

rear:

to take care of (a young person or animal)

eg: His family rears [=raises] cattle. ?

They reared [=brought up, (chiefly US) raised] their children to be polite and well-mannered.

注意到了吗？种植物的话，就不能用rear 了，用grow 或者 raise.

还有 raise 还有死而复生或提升的意思，这个rear 也不能用。

He claimed that he could raise people from the dead.

He worked hard to raise himself from poverty.
