这两个词都含“奉献”、“献身”的意思。

两者只是意义侧重不同,常可替换。常用结构是:dedicate /devote…… to…… 。to 为介词,常接sth. 或doing sth.。

devote oneseIf to奉献给…,例如They devoted themseIves to their country in the war。
10. devote和dedicate的区别
dedicate是“devote (time, effort, or oneself) to a particular task or purpose ” 而devote是“give all or a large part of one's time or resources to (a person, activity, or cause) ”

学习英语不能太急于求成,因为只有有了“量”,才能有“质”的飞跃。
在量的积累阶段,也应该遵循正确的学习方法。以阅读为例,一套简易读物分六级,每一级有五六本,一本只有100页左右,不超过一个星期就可以读完一个级的读物。你在读的过程中,不要太多拘泥于语法,可以偶尔体会一下语法的作用。你要读进去,才能读得快。不要研究语言,要树立数量第一的观念,尽量快速地读。这样一来,坚持读三四个月,英语的阅读水平就会迅速提高。
