關於Scientist的意思和用法的提問

A: So, in that part of the song he says "Running in circles, coming up tails, heads on a science apart"

First thing to note: he is referencing playing "heads or tails." the game where you flip a coin to make a decision. If the coin lands on the side with a face, its heads. If the coin lands on the side without a face, it's tails. usually you do this to make a random decision. Like if you and a friend can't decide if you want coffee or tea. You get the coin and say "heads, we get coffee. tails, we get tea." and you flip the coin and see which wins.

This song is about a relationship that isn't doing well. So they keep "running in circles" meaning that they keep getting into arguments and doing the same things. They keep "coming up tails" meaning they keep making the same bad decision to stay together.

"heads on a science apart" means that splitting up is the logical choice here. It's the winning choice (heads).

A: I assume you know what a bat is (a small animal with wings). Bats fly in the evening or even at night and catch insects. They locate their position and their prey (insects) by echo-location rather than by sight, so the point of this experiment or demonstration by the scientist was to see this echo-location in action. Bats do not bump into anything even when it is pitch dark. What's echo-location? It is a clever thing done by bats: they send out little sounds (too faint for us to hear) and wait for them to bounce off anything. This tells them where they are and what they are surrounded by.

A: It means he also thinks like a scientist. (Wired, in this sentence, refers to the connections inside the brain.)

A: In this case, it means he has a problem with misinformation and loves facts.

Apologies my above answer was wrong I didn't have enough information.

A: is hot enough to ward off infection BUT AT THE SAME TIME is cool enough.

If we were too cold, we would have to eat more to maintain our metabolism.

So 98.6 is not too hot, not too cold.

Sorry, I don't know these words in Japanese!

A: My father is a scientist.
He's a scientist.
You don't have to be a scientist to figure that out!

A: The scientist works in the lab.
The scientist discovered a chemical.
He works as a scientist.
The scientist published a research paper.
The scientist did research.

A: The first sentence is correct:

However, some scientists were determined to help humans realise their dream to explore space.

The second sentence should be:

However, some scientists were determined to help humans realise their dream of EXPLORING space.

A: The difference is that the sentence “The scientist laid out the apparatus on the table” means that the scientist has put/laid out the (in this context, most likely whole/already built) apparatus on the table

The sentence “The scientist arranged the apparatus on the table” means that the scientist is building the apparatus on the table. Or, it could also mean that the the scientist is moving the apparatus’ placement on the table so that it’s in an ‘arranged’ placement.

Ex: “I laid the flowers on the table.” means that I put the flowers on the table, while “I arranged the flowers on the table.” means I moved the flowers on the table into different positions

I hope this helps!

A: Hello! I hope you are doing well so far! I will like to help you get your answer.
So, “Savant” refers to someone super intelligent, smart which is able to solve problems that other ordinary people do not. (Also, can be similar as a scientist but they are not the same.)

For example: Did you heard about the savant kid named Chuck Norris?!👱🏼
He can solve any question in just a second!😱


I hope that this helped you! Any question please let me know.👍🏻

Nevertheless, “Scientists” is someone who investigate about the world and why of different things.

A: They are very similar and mean the same thing but personally I think it sounds better if you say the scientists have found.

A: 'He's not a scientist.' is grammatically correct.

Sometimes, in very informal and incorrect/ improper English, people say "He's no Scientist!"

A: @Felicity1

A: “Transfer” is a specific kind of move where something goes from one place to another. So you transfer pictures from your phone to your computer or you transfer pancakes out of the pan and onto the plate when they are done cooking. There has to be a source and a destination. Since the scientists aren’t really going from one place to another, they are just going around wherever, “transfer” is not appropriate here.

A: To ensure the message's understanding. If you don't write it down the text after "and" might be taken as an addition to "ocean depths"

A: 請到提問詳情頁確認

A: 請到提問詳情頁確認

A: named sounds better in this context to me, both are correct though

A: A scientist named

A: I would use, "...in other specialty fields." opposed to what said, as it allows for them to be renowned in more then two fields (which is what you would be saying if you had "...in another field" or "another field of specialty").
Also, 'far-famed', while technically correct and a good use of the word, is an uncommon word that people may assume is incorrect ( I know I had to double check). A more natural phrase to use would be 'well known'.

Putting that together, we get.

"Some of the more renowned scientists are also well know in other specialty fields."


Hope that helps :)

A: "Which" is not correct. This is a restrictive clause and the sentence wouldn't mean the same thing if you took it out. This medicine can cure anything and is unlike any other. It is unique, and you need to use "that" to set it apart from all other medicines.

"Which" and "that" both perform similar functions, but the former just adds information about something that can be omitted, and the latter introduces a description that sets the noun apart.

1. Today I washed my car which has a spoiler.
2. Today I washed my car that has a spoiler.

In 1, you can take out the which part and the sentence means the same thing as it did before (I only have one car, and I washed it today.) In 2, you have multiple cars, and today you washed the one with a spoiler. If you take out the that clause, this meaning is not preserved.

Example sentences highlighting the difference between that and which might seem a bit contrived, and I think it's because we tend to focus on what sets things apart because it is more interesting.

Here is an example using both:
Mammals are animals that have live young. However, echidnas and platypuses, which are also mammals, lay eggs, and they are the only mammals that do.

1. All animals do not have live young, so we use "that" to set mammals apart from the rest of the animals.
2. Echidnas and platypuses are both also mammals. We are just adding extra information so we use which. Notice if you take away "which are also mammals" the meaning stays intact.
3. Echidnas and platypuses are the only mammals that lay eggs. This sets them apart from all other mammals and makes them unique. So, we use "that."

Honestly "that" is much more common, and we don't really use "which" outside of as a question word (e. g. Which one do you want?) because the nature of it is to add (mostly) superfluous information that doesn't have an effect on the meaning of the sentence. Unless you are clarifying something, you're going to be using "that" in the vast majority of cases.

A: You use whether here because you are not introducing a strong point. it doesn't matter towards your study.

Either I will be a scientist or not, so I will need to study more about the world. (To help me become a scientist)
