How can I use “job” “career” and “occupation” correctly?
How can I use “job” “career” and “occupation” correctly? I asked this question on italki and have got three answers.
1#Dark Panther is smart. He(I guess) shows me a scenario which is very helpful to me.
This job as a garbage collector sucks! I hope it doesn't become my friend's occupation after he graduates from college. He told me he definitely won't make a career out of it.
2#Cherry is a teacher form United Arab Emirates who can speak English French German and Spanish.
"Job" and "occupation" could be synonyms and refer to one's post of employment or the work one does to earn money.
"What is your job/occupation?" would mean the same in that case and the answer could be " I am a teacher " or " i am a banker" etc...
'Career' on the other hand refers to the progression of one's professional life that entails training, development of skills and promotions. It is a life long perspective of the job you are going to choose and the general progression of this professional life.
So you don't usually ask 'What is your career?" and get a definite answer referring to a current job. It is rather used in a context such as 'What is your ideal career?" and the answer could be " I like working with number or records " or " i am good with machines and tools." or " I would love to pursue a career diplomat."
3#Eliot is from Britain.
My job is teaching maths.
I have a career in Education.
Occupation is just a fancy word for job.

A question abut “anywhere” and “everywhere”.
Which one is correct English and what’s the meaning in Chinese? Thanks.
There is no equality anywhere.
There is no equality everywhere.
There isn’t equality anywhere.
There isn’t equality everywhere.
Daniel @
"There isn’t equality anywhere." = There is equality nowhere.
"There isn’t equality everywhere." = There may be equality somewhere.
============================================
Thank you very much.Eliot@
每一個。。。都不。。。 = not any(thing).
In Chinese, when you say 都不。。。, it usually translates into English as "not any...".
not ... anything; not...anywhere; not...anyone; not...anybody.
nowhere = not...anywhere
nothing = not...anything
nobody = not...anybody
I hope that clears that up.
========================================
It’s very useful to me, thank you very much..

What’s the meaning of ITALKI? It’s like Japanese pronunciation.
It's pronounced "eye-talk-eye," not "ee-talk-ee."

I found something that maybe interesting or not.
A lot of English notebook by Chinese cannot be corrected.
I wonder if it’s a good way to learn English here.
I will wait and see.

I hope this time I can keep going on .
Last week, I found a few articles about English studying
when I was surfing on net. It said that it was most
important to write diary in English. I am afraid that it is
too difficult to me. What my problem is that there is
none who can correct my works, I may still make the
same mistaken, is that helpful to me? And I don’t
know how long I will take. But I make the decision to
have a try in the end. I type in Microsoft Word cause it
can correct my spelling at least. So here it is . And now, I
found this good place .
