Principal<\/b> ja principle<\/b> ovat kaksi englannin kielen sanaa, jotka kuulostavat samalta mutta merkitsev\u00e4t eri asioita. T\u00e4m\u00e4n seurauksena ne voivat aiheuttaa sekaannusta niille, jotka opiskelevat englantia vieraana kielen\u00e4. T\u00e4ss\u00e4 artikkelissa k\u00e4ymme l\u00e4pi n\u00e4iden kahden sanan merkitykset, k\u00e4ytt\u00f6tavat ja erot. Lis\u00e4ksi tarjoamme esimerkkilauseita, jotka auttavat ymm\u00e4rt\u00e4m\u00e4\u00e4n sanojen k\u00e4ytt\u00f6\u00e4 k\u00e4yt\u00e4nn\u00f6ss\u00e4.<\/p>\n

Sanan ”Principal” merkitys ja k\u00e4ytt\u00f6<\/h3>\n

Sana principal<\/b> voi toimia sek\u00e4 substantiivina ett\u00e4 adjektiivina. Substantiivina principal<\/b> tarkoittaa p\u00e4\u00e4asiallista henkil\u00f6\u00e4 tai<\/a> asiaa, kuten koulun rehtoria tai p\u00e4\u00e4sijoittajaa. Adjektiivina se viittaa ensisijaiseen tai t\u00e4rkeimp\u00e4\u00e4n.<\/p>\n

The principal of our school is very strict.<\/b> (Koulumme rehtori on hyvin tiukka.)<\/p>\n

She is the principal dancer in the ballet company.<\/b> (H\u00e4n on balettiryhm\u00e4n p\u00e4\u00e4solisti.)<\/p>\n

Sanan ”Principle” merkitys ja k\u00e4ytt\u00f6<\/h3>\n

Toisaalta sana principle<\/b> on aina substantiivi, joka tarkoittaa periaatetta tai s\u00e4\u00e4nt\u00f6\u00e4, jonka mukaan jokin toimii tai jota joku noudattaa.<\/p>\n

He refused to lie, sticking to his principles.<\/b> (H\u00e4n kielt\u00e4ytyi valehtelemasta pysyen periaatteidensa mukaisena.)<\/p>\n

The principles of physics can be observed in everyday life.<\/b> (Fysiikan periaatteita voidaan havaita jokap\u00e4iv\u00e4isess\u00e4 el\u00e4m\u00e4ss\u00e4.)<\/p>\n

Yleisi\u00e4 sekaannuksia ja kuinka v\u00e4ltt\u00e4\u00e4 niit\u00e4<\/h3>\n

Sek\u00e4 principal<\/b> ett\u00e4 principle<\/b> \u00e4\u00e4ntyv\u00e4t l\u00e4hes samalla tavalla, mik\u00e4 on suurin syy niiden aiheuttamaan sekaannukseen. Kuitenkin niiden merkitykset ja k\u00e4ytt\u00f6tarkoitukset eroavat toisistaan merkitt\u00e4v\u00e4sti.<\/p>\n

Muista, ett\u00e4 principal<\/b> (adjektiivi tai substantiivi) liittyy aina p\u00e4\u00e4asiallisuuteen tai johtajuuteen, kun taas principle<\/b> viittaa aina periaatteisiin tai s\u00e4\u00e4nt\u00f6ihin. T\u00e4m\u00e4 ero on keskeinen niiden oikean k\u00e4yt\u00f6n ymm\u00e4rt\u00e4misess\u00e4.<\/p>\n

Our principal investment has matured.<\/b> (P\u00e4\u00e4sijoituksemme on kypsynyt.)<\/p>\n

It’s against my principles to cheat in exams.<\/b> (Se on vastoin periaatteitani huijata kokeissa.)<\/p>\n

Harjoituksia ja muistis\u00e4\u00e4nt\u00f6j\u00e4<\/h3>\n

Yksi tapa muistaa ero principal<\/b> ja principle<\/b> v\u00e4lill\u00e4 on mietti\u00e4, ett\u00e4 principal<\/b> sis\u00e4lt\u00e4\u00e4 sanan ”pal”, joka englanniksi tarkoittaa kaveria – ajattele koulun rehtoria kaverinasi. Toisaalta, principle<\/b> sis\u00e4lt\u00e4\u00e4 sanan ”prince”, ja voit ajatella periaatteita hallitsijoina, jotka ohjaavat toimintaasi.<\/p>\n

T\u00e4m\u00e4n lis\u00e4ksi, voit harjoitella k\u00e4ytt\u00e4m\u00e4ll\u00e4 sanoja lauseissa ja korvata niit\u00e4 kontekstin mukaan, jotta n\u00e4et, kumpi sana sopii paremmin. Keskustele opettajan tai muiden oppijoiden kanssa sanojen merkityksist\u00e4 ja k\u00e4yt\u00f6st\u00e4, ja pyyd\u00e4 palautetta.<\/p>\n

Yhteenveto<\/h3>\n

Vaikka principal<\/b> ja principle<\/b> saattavat kuulostaa samanlaisilta, niiden merkitykset ja k\u00e4yt\u00f6t eroavat toisistaan. T\u00e4rkeint\u00e4 on muistaa, ett\u00e4 principal<\/b> liittyy p\u00e4\u00e4asiallisuuteen ja johtajuuteen, kun taas principle<\/b> viittaa periaatteisiin ja s\u00e4\u00e4nt\u00f6ihin. K\u00e4ytt\u00e4m\u00e4ll\u00e4 esimerkkilauseita ja harjoituksia voit parantaa kyky\u00e4si erottaa n\u00e4m\u00e4 kaksi sanaa toisistaan ja k\u00e4ytt\u00e4\u00e4 niit\u00e4 oikein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1527947,"template":"","vocabulary_language":[3401],"class_list":["post-296943","vocabulary","type-vocabulary","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","vocabulary_language-englanti"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nPrincipal vs Principle - Essential englannin sanasto selitetty - Talkpal<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Principal ja principle ovat kaksi englannin kielen sanaa, jotka kuulostavat samalta mutta merkitsev\u00e4t eri asioita.
