經濟 vs 經濟

ECONOMIC  vs  ECONOMICAL

 

 economic 同 economical o既中文都係「經濟」，所以有好多人都好混淆呢2個字。咁我地可以點分呢?

根據Common Errors in English Usage o既解釋:

Something is economical if it saves you money; but if you’re talking about the effect of some measure on the world’s economy, it’s an economic effect. 

根據cycnet.com o既解釋
Economic means "having to do with the economy or the study of economics."
Economical means "careful or prudent in managing finances, money- saving."
Economically is the adverb form of both words. 

即係economical 就用黎講另一樣野較經濟，即比較便宜或實惠; 而economic 就用黎形容國家/地區o既經濟，或關於經濟學。
呢個係比較簡單o既解釋方法，如果大家想知詳細d，可以去呢個網睇睇: http://www.cybertranslator.idv.tw/?p=352
