nciku Note

感到 vs. 觉得

感到 vs. 觉得
gǎndào vs. juéde

1. Both words mean “to feel something psychologically or physiologically." 觉得 is more casual.
(1) 接到电话以后,他立刻感到觉得)事情不妙。
(2) 当时他感到觉得)很困惑。

In the two sentences above, the two words are interchangeable.

To show negation, 不觉得 or 没觉得 is preferred.
(3) 我不觉得这有什么不好。
(4) 我当时没觉得很疼,回到家才发现伤口已经流血了。

感到 can also be used in the negative, but is not very casual.
(5) 你这样做就没感到觉得)羞耻吗?
(6) 对于他的出现,我不感到觉得)惊讶。

2. Both verbs can take an adjective as their object, or a verbal object. Also, 感到can take several nouns as its object, but 觉得 cannot.
(7) 他感到了一阵寒意。
(8) 一份小小的礼物让他感到了朋友的关怀。

1. 这两个词都可以表示有所感觉,多表示心理状态或生理上的感受。“觉得”更为口语化。
以上两句,两个词可以互换。
“感到”也可以否定,但不够口语化。
否定时多用“不觉得”、“没觉得”。
2. 在句法上,两个词都可以带形容词宾语,也可以带主谓结构做宾语。另外,“感到”可以带少数几个名词做宾语,“觉得则不可以。
