У чому різниця між discover і invent?Слово discover ми використовуємо, коли знаходимо щось нове. Тобто це вже існувало до нас, а ми тільки знайшли це. Наприклад: Вчені відкрили нову бактерію (вони її не створили самі, а просто виявили її існування). Слово invent ми використовуємо, коли вигадуємо щось нове. Тобто вигадуємо, а потім створюємо щось. Ми прикладаємо свої зусилля, щоб щось нове починало існувати. Наприклад: Раніше люди не вірили, що хтось винайде літак.
