I'm kind of confused about its meaning between"羡慕" and "嫉妒".

Answer

The word "envy" can be used as a verb or as a noun.

Verb: I envy my neighbour. He has such a lovely car.

Noun: When I think about my neighbour's car, the emotion I feel most is envy.

Answer

Sorry, I don't know "羡慕" and "嫉妒", but I can give you some examples.

In English, you can use "envy" as a verb or a noun:
1) I envy him [because he has a lot of money].
2) She was full of envy.

Both the verb and the noun mean "jealous" and "to be jealous", respectively.
1) I am jealous of him 
2) She was full of jealousy.

I hope that helps! :)
Kind regards, Choppy
