"Speak" و "Talk" فرقشون چیه؟

So you wanna know about that?

Just stay tuned

Well I have to say that they both

generally mean ‘saying something’.

but there are some small differences

in how we use them.

first notice that speak is more formal than talk

but when do we use that?

Number 1

speak to someone

I spoke to my boss about my salary

So he’s my boss and I have to respect him.

I know it’s not always important for us

to talk about them respectfully but

when it is, we use speak.

It can be used in other formal situations,like

this example:

I will speak at the conference on saturday.

number two

speak a language

We never say I talk a language

so notice this example

I speak both Persian and English.

number three

when you want speak for someone

listen to the example

You knock the door

and let me speak for you.

But when do we use talk?

let’s find out

we use talk in informal situations like:

We will talk about it

just act like you’re enjoying the party.

Or this expression that I really like

because it’s so useful

don’t talk nonsense

we never say don’t speak nonsense

it’s not formal.

Now it’s your turn to make some sentences.

And of course

if you have any problems

make sure to tell me about them in the comment section.
