"state" vs "status" #1 (permalink) Tue Dec 23, 2008 10:07 am   "state" vs "status"
 

Hi friends,

Would someone advice me what the difference between "status" and "state" is?

I've used them so many times but still not clear in which kind of situation we should use "state" or "status"...

Thank you very much,
Sunflower.baby

Briefly, 'status' = state at a specific time.

Please start a new thread when you have a new question, Mhanni-- do not keep adding different unrelated questions to the same thread.

Most of your questions are too general to be conveniently answered here. You must start with a DICTIONARY for these words: to, for, with, by, basically.

Please use Google to study PHRASAL VERBS.

Excited, tired, interested, etc, are human feelings, so use these words to speak about the person: He is excited about his new school.
Exciting, tiring, interesting, etc, are qualities of the object (a movie, a job, a book, etc), so use these words to speak about them: His new school is exciting.
