A Journal Through My Activities, Thoughts, and Notes
#english

You cannot say "It is worth to investigate", as this is not grammatically correct. Instead, you can say:

---

### Correct Usage:
1. "It is worth investigating."
- This is the correct structure. The gerund "investigating" is used after "worth".
- Example: The issue is serious and worth investigating.

2. "It is worth the investigation."
- Here, "the investigation" is a noun phrase.
- Example: This problem is complicated, but it’s worth the investigation.

---

### Explanation:
- The word "worth" is followed by a gerund (-ing form) or a noun phrase, not an infinitive (to + verb).
- If you want to use "to investigate," you can rewrite the sentence differently, such as:
- "It is important to investigate."
- "It is necessary to investigate."
#english seems siːmz 与 seems like

seems siːmz 与 seems like 在英文中都有“看起来”或“似乎”的意思,但它们的用法略有不同。我们来分别看看这两个表达。

---

### 1. Seems
“Seems” 通常直接跟一个形容词、名词、或不带 “like”的描述性短语,来表达主语给人的感觉或印象。

例句:
- She seems happy.
她看起来很高兴。
- It seems possible that they’ll arrive tomorrow.
看起来他们有可能明天到达。

相关词汇和用法:
- seems to be:用于更正式的场合,例如 It seems to be the best option.(这似乎是最好的选择。)

---

### 2. Seems like
“Seems like” 通常接一个完整的短语、从句或名词短语,带出“看起来像……的情况”之意。与 “seems” 相比,"seems like" 更强调类似性,类似于“好像”或“像是”的意思。

例句:
- It seems like it’s going to rain.
看起来好像要下雨了。
- She seems like a nice person.
她看起来是个不错的人。

相关词汇和用法:
- appears like:意思相似,常用于书面表达,例如 It appears like he has made up his mind.(看起来他已经下定了决心。)

---

### 区别总结
- Seems:直接描述某人或某物的特性,或一种没有明确主张的印象。
- Seems like:表达一种情况或状态的类似性,更倾向于“好像”或“似乎是”的感觉。

In modern English, the phrase "all of the somethings" has largely been simplified to "all the somethings." This change reflects a trend toward more concise and straightforward language usage.

### "Look After" vs. "Take Care"

- Take care of: Use when you are handling, managing, or completing a task or responsibility. It implies that you'll see something through to completion.
- Example: "Please take care of sending the report by Friday."

- Look after: Use when you are watching over or attending to someone or something, usually on an ongoing basis. It suggests direct, continuous involvement.
- Example: "Could you look after my dog while I’m on vacation?"

Tip: Remember, “take care” needs “of” before the object, while “look after” is used directly with the object.
今天在多邻国学到这句:Don't stay trapped in the past. 于是我问gpt:那鼓励他人对过去翻篇还可以怎么说?

gpt:可以用以下几种表达来鼓励他人对过去翻篇:

1. "Let go of the past and focus on the future."
> 放下过去,专注未来。

2. "What’s done is done. Look forward and make the most of what's ahead."
> 过去的已经过去了,向前看,好好把握未来。

3. "Don’t dwell on the past; new opportunities are waiting."
> 别沉湎于过去,新机会在等着你。

4. "Turn the page and start a new chapter."
> 翻篇,开启新的篇章。

5. "Learn from it and move on."
> 吸取教训,继续前行。

这些表达都传递了“向前看”的积极心态,同时也鼓励从过去的经历中学习和成长。

昨晚在多邻国上学到这么一句:I told you I was going to trip over that box!
问AI得知 trip over something 是被something绊倒的意思。这整句话说了这样一个故事:你估计会被那箱子绊倒并真的被那箱子绊倒了,然后用带点无奈又带点幽默的语气说:「看,我就说过我会被它绊倒!」
#English handle

A website wants me to introduce myself, it asks, Type your handle.
What does handle mean here?

In the context of a website asking for your "handle," the term refers to your username or online identity. This is commonly used in social media, forums, and gaming platforms, where users create unique identifiers to represent themselves. Your handle often reflects your personality or interests and can be a combination of your name, a nickname, or something entirely creative.

For example, if your name is John Smith, your handle could be something like "JohnS" or "Smithy." It's essentially how you will be recognized by others on that platform.

## sound
A sound is a noise, something you can hear if you're in the right spot and it's loud enough. A doorbell, a fire alarm, a cat's meow, or your brother's snoring
— they're all sounds.

Long Island Sound is another kind of sound — it's a branch of the Atlantic Ocean that runs between Connecticut and Long Island, New York. When you don't know a word, you might sound out the syllables — say them aloud - to figure out the pronunciation. Sound can also mean "solid or good." Sound advice is good advice. Sound investments are secure. When you have a sound sleep, it's restful and uninterrupted — at least until your alarm sounds.

PRIMARY MEANINGS OF: sound
1. mechanical vibrations transmitted by an elastic medium
2. appear in a certain way
3. a narrow channel of the sea joining two larger bodies of water
4. in good condition; free from defect or damage or decay
5. thorough

"Does he live all alone now?" 和 "Does he live alone now?" 都是在询问某人是否独居,但它们的语气和含义略有不同:

1. Does he live alone now?
- 这是一个中性的问句,单纯询问他现在是否一个人住,没有强调。

2. Does he live all alone now?
- "All alone" 带有更强的情感色彩,暗示完全孤单、独自一人,可能带有某种同情或关心的意味。

总结:"all alone" 更强调孤独感,而 "alone" 则更为中性,指的是物理上的独居。
