will和volition的区别

你问的应该是他们的名词（准确的说是will的名词）。

他们有的***同含义是意愿。而will还有意志，更倾向于一个信念。

其实学英语不要太苛求于词的分别，可以通过记忆例句来比较理解。

这才是最地道的。

另外这两个词都可以一起用的啊。

It is not something that you can do through any effort, will or volition of yours.

这不是你可以通过任何努力和意志能做到的。

附两个词的柯林斯词典详解：

volition /v?ln/

We like to think that everything we do and everything we think is a product of our volition.

2.PHRASE If you do something of your own volition, you do it because you have decided for yourself that you will do it and not because someone else has told you to do it. 出于自愿
