用英语学英语口语：Customer & guest 顾客，客人的区别

用英语学英语口语：Customer & guest的区别

从考量一个人词汇量大小角度看，你可以用中文说customer是顾客，guest是客人。

然而，英语学习要想有实质性突破和提高，中文不是你理解和表达英语的唯一语言。

另外一个理解和表达英语的语言是英语本身：见英语说中文是认字，见英语说英语才是语言能力。

我们现在用英语表达What is the difference between customer and guest：

UTalk 自己跟自己说英语，使用英语：

Well both customer and guest are buyers.A buyer is someone who buys goods and service(产品与服务)。这是用中文学buyer是无法学到和用到的非常有用的英语表达goods and service.

But when we pay and buy something(行话叫goods and service) at a store or a supermarket or a department store, we are called a customer,not a guest.

But when we pay and stay at a hotel, we will not be called a customer, we are called a guest.

That's the difference.

你为什么不用这些简单的英语去记customer and guest，而非得用中文“顾客”“客人”记customer and guest呢？

当你用英语记customer and guedt时，你就是在说英语，就是在用英语，就是在用英语积累英语。

时间久了，我们把它称为“英语语言能力”。

从商业角度讲，a guest不是指someone who visirs your home, or a visitor at your home.

不过，你能用英语去记guest的这层意思也是一种极大的进步。
