persist 和 insist 这两个单词都有坚持不懈的意思,但在使用方法和语法上有些区别。具体如下:

1. 含义解释
- persist [pər'sɪst]:指坚持某种信念、想法、行动或要求,无法轻易改变或中断。
- insist [ɪn'sɪst]:除了表达不能轻易改变自己的意见、信念以外,还强调要求别人听从,主张至高无上的权威和束缚力。

2. 语法、使用方法不同之处
- persist 通常用于主语,后跟介词 in/on/with 和动词 -ing 形式,表示持续不断地做某事。
- insist 后可跟that从句或直接跟宾语(名词或代词)和后缀 on/upon,表示坚持己见或要求对方做某事。

3. 具体用法举例
