Englannin kielen opiskelu tuo usein eteen haasteita, joista yksi on samankaltaisten sanojen erottaminen toisistaan. Erityisen haastavaa t\u00e4m\u00e4 voi olla, kun sanat kuulostavat samalta mutta niiden merkitykset ovat t\u00e4ysin erilaisia. T\u00e4ss\u00e4 artikkelissa k\u00e4sittelemme kahta t\u00e4llaista sanaa: ”principal” ja ”principle”. N\u00e4m\u00e4 sanat sekoitetaan usein kesken\u00e4\u00e4n, mutta niiden merkitysero on suuri. Opimme erottamaan ne toisistaan ja k\u00e4ytt\u00e4m\u00e4\u00e4n oikein englannin kieless\u00e4.<\/p>\n

Mik\u00e4 on ”principal”?<\/h3>\n

Sanalla ”principal” on useita merkityksi\u00e4<\/b>, mutta useimmiten se tarkoittaa ensisijaista tai<\/a> p\u00e4\u00e4asiallista henkil\u00f6\u00e4 tai asiaa. Se voi viitata esimerkiksi koulun rehtoriin, p\u00e4\u00e4summaan rahoissa tai p\u00e4\u00e4rooliin n\u00e4ytelm\u00e4ss\u00e4.<\/p>\n

The principal of the school addressed the students at the assembly.<\/b>
\nKoulun rehtori puhui oppilaille kokouksessa.<\/p>\n

The principal amount of the loan does not include interest.<\/b>
\nLainan p\u00e4\u00e4summa ei sis\u00e4ll\u00e4 korkoa.<\/p>\n

Mik\u00e4 on ”principle”?<\/h3>\n

Toisaalta ”principle” viittaa periaatteeseen tai s\u00e4\u00e4nt\u00f6\u00f6n<\/b>, joka ohjaa ihmisen k\u00e4ytt\u00e4ytymist\u00e4 tai johonkin laajempaan uskomusj\u00e4rjestelm\u00e4\u00e4n. Se on yleens\u00e4 moraalinen ohje tai etiikan normi.<\/p>\n

She refused to lie on principle.<\/b>
\nH\u00e4n kielt\u00e4ytyi valehtelemasta periaatteesta.<\/p>\n

The principle of equality is fundamental in democracy.<\/b>
\nTasa-arvon periaate on demokratian perusta.<\/p>\n

Yleisi\u00e4 virheit\u00e4 ja niiden v\u00e4ltt\u00e4minen<\/h3>\n

Monet suomenkieliset oppijat sekoittavat n\u00e4m\u00e4 kaksi sanaa, koska ne kuulostavat samalta. V\u00e4ltt\u00e4\u00e4ksesi t\u00e4m\u00e4n yleisen virheen, muista, ett\u00e4 ”principal” liittyy useimmiten henkil\u00f6\u00f6n tai p\u00e4\u00e4asiaan ja ”principle” liittyy periaatteisiin ja s\u00e4\u00e4nt\u00f6ihin<\/b>. Voit mietti\u00e4 esimerkiksi lausetta ”The principal (rehtori) teaches us principles (periaatteet).”<\/p>\n

Harjoituksia sanan k\u00e4yt\u00f6n vahvistamiseksi<\/h3>\n

1. T\u00e4yt\u00e4 tyhj\u00e4t kohdat oikealla sanalla:<\/b> ”The ____ of the school is known for his strict ____ on discipline.”
\n2. K\u00e4\u00e4nn\u00e4 lause: ”Periaatteiden mukaan toimiminen on t\u00e4rke\u00e4\u00e4.”
\n3. Kirjoita oma lause k\u00e4ytt\u00e4en sanaa ”principal” ja toinen lause k\u00e4ytt\u00e4en sanaa ”principle”.<\/p>\n

Yhteenveto<\/h3>\n

T\u00e4ss\u00e4 artikkelissa olemme k\u00e4sitelleet kahta usein sekoitettavaa englanninkielist\u00e4 sanaa: ”principal” ja ”principle”. Olemme oppineet, ett\u00e4 ”principal” viittaa p\u00e4\u00e4asialliseen henkil\u00f6\u00f6n tai asiaan, kun taas ”principle” tarkoittaa periaatetta tai s\u00e4\u00e4nt\u00f6\u00e4. Toivottavasti t\u00e4m\u00e4 selvennys auttaa sinua v\u00e4ltt\u00e4m\u00e4\u00e4n yleisi\u00e4 virheit\u00e4 ja k\u00e4ytt\u00e4m\u00e4\u00e4n englannin kielt\u00e4 tarkemmin ja itsevarmemmin. Muista harjoitella s\u00e4\u00e4nn\u00f6llisesti ja k\u00e4ytt\u00e4\u00e4 uutta tietoa aktiivisesti, jotta sanat juurtuvat paremmin muistiisi.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1527958,"template":"","vocabulary_language":[3401],"class_list":["post-296976","vocabulary","type-vocabulary","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","vocabulary_language-englanti"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nPrincipal vs Principle - Hallitse englannin oppimistasi - Talkpal<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Englannin kielen opiskelu tuo usein eteen haasteita, joista yksi on samankaltaisten sanojen erottaminen toisistaan.
