  出自：attrib.

1. earth的基本意思是“地球”,指相对于其他天体来说,为人类生存提供条件的星体; 还可指“大地,地面,陆地”,指相对于天空而言的为人类和其他生物提供居住地的地球表面。earth还可指“泥土,土壤”。earth引申可指“全人类”; earth用于比喻还可指“大量的钱”。
2. earth作“地球”解时常以单数形式出现,前加定冠词,也可作为专有名词,这时要用(the) earth的形式,冠词可有可无,而现在多用the earth形式,但如果和天空、天体相对时,前面常不加冠词。
3. earth作“泥土,土壤”解时,是物质名词,泛指时不用冠词,特指或类指时须用定冠词。
4. on earth意为“究竟”,可用在疑问句或否定句中加强语气。

earth, globe, world

这三个词的共同意思是“地球,世界”。其区别是：

earth是区别于其他星球或天堂、地狱而言的; globe主要强调地球的形状是圆形的。例如:

There is no place on the globe where the name of Shakespeare is unknown.地球上没有一个角落不知道莎士比亚这个名字的。

world则强调全体人类或世事。例如:

All the world hopes the conference will be successful.全世界都希望会谈能取得成功。

earth, ground, land, soil

这组词的共同意思是“地面,陆地”。其区别是：

earth是相对于天空或太空而言的“地面”; land是指地球表面相对于海洋而言时的“地面”,有时还可指“地产”。例如:

After working at sea for several years,I got a job on land.在海上工作数年之后,我在陆地找了一份工作。

The duke's lands stretch for many miles in all directions.方圆许多英里之内都是公爵的地产。

ground指人们在上面行走的地面或具有一定面积限度的空地。例如:

The apple fell to the ground.苹果掉落到地上。

soil主要表示栽培植物的“土壤”,也可引申为“国土,国度”。例如:

This soil is good for growing things.这土壤很适合种植。

They trod on this country's soil.他们在这个国度里做买卖。

下面两个短语意思不同:

on the earth 在地球上

on earth 世上,究竟

他把罐子装满土。

误 He filled the pot with earths.

析 earth作“土地,泥土”解时是不可数名词,没有复数形式。

• ☆ 直接源自古英语的eorthe；最初源自希腊语的era，意为地球。
