補充說明: solve / resolve

solve 與 resolve 都譯為「解決」,是易混淆字,差別在處理的對象。solve 指「找出答案或做法」,對象多為有解答的問題,solve a problem 為「解決問題」,solve a puzzle 為「解開謎題」。resolve 指「把爭議、衝突或糾紛處理到告一段落」,resolve a dispute 為「化解爭議」,resolve a conflict 為「解決衝突」。遇到 problem 與 issue 時兩字常可互換,以上為較典型的分工。此外,resolve 還有「下定決心」的意思,resolve to quit smoking 為「下定決心戒菸」,solve 沒有這個意思。兩字的判斷方式為:「有答案可以找出來的問題」用 solve,「需要處理或協調到結案的事」用 resolve,「下定決心」也用 resolve。
