Niveau A2

Entendre : HEAR ou LISTEN ?

Piège #71 – Perception passive vs écoute active

La règle

HEAR

Entendre (perception involontaire)

  • I hear a bird. (J'entends un oiseau)
  • Did you hear that? (Tu as entendu ?)

→ On perçoit un son sans effort

LISTEN (TO)

Écouter (action volontaire)

  • I listen to music. (J'écoute de la musique)
  • Listen to me! (Écoute-moi !)

→ On prête attention volontairement

Attention : "Listen" est toujours suivi de "to" devant un complément : listen TO music (pas "listen music").
