Do not confuse ability with capability and capacity. You often use ability to say that someone can do something well. He had remarkable ability as a musician. ...the ability to bear hardship. A person's capability is the amount of work they can do and how well they can do it. ...a job that was beyond the capability of one man. ...the director's ideas of the capability of the actor. If someone has a particular capacity, a capacity for something, or a capacity to do something, they have the qualities required to do it. Capacity is a more formal word than ability. ...their capacity for hard work. ...his capacity to see the other person's point of view.
不要混淆 ability, capability 和 capacity。ability 常用于表示某人將某件事做好的能力：He had remarkable ability as a musician（他擁有杰出的音樂才華），the ability to bear hardship（承受苦難的能力）。capability 指某人所能完成的工作量以及所能達到的工作質量：a job that was beyond the capability of one man（個人力所不及的工作），the director's ideas of the capability of the actor（導演對于這個演員演技的看法）。capacity指做成某件事所需的素質, 用法比 ability 更加正式，例如 their capacity for hard work（他們能吃苦耐勞），his capacity to see the other person's point of view（他領會他人觀點的能力）。

1. 才能：為此,羅杰斯教授對技能(Skill)、才能(Ability)和能力(Capability)三個概念做了區分. 他認為,技能是具體的、操作性較強的技術、技巧;而才能則是相對抽象的,伴隨人的成長發展的素質,如邏輯思維能力等;能力則要求一個個體,

n.(名詞)

ability的基本意思是泛指做各種事情的“能力”。可以指體力方面的,也可以指智力方面的，有時還指法律上的能力;可以是生來就有的生理功能,也可以是后天通過實踐學得的。作此解時僅指能力而不涉及能力的高低,只用單數形式。ability指“智力,技能”時用作可數名詞,且常用于復數形式。ability也可指“聰明,智慧”，這時用作不可數名詞。單獨用ability或abilities時除帶后置修飾語或有上下文提示者外，一般都指智力。

表示“在某方面有能力”時ability可接介詞in, at, for等；表示“做某事的能力”時可接動詞不定式,也可接“in+動名詞”,但不接“of+動名詞”。表示“有能力的”，可說ability of。

ability to do it前通常有限定詞，即可以說an ability to do it,也可以說the ability to do it,還可以說sb's ability to do it。注意這種結構中的動詞不定式不可用于被動語態。

abilities有時可和many連用。

n.(名詞)

ability, capability，capacity，talent，genius，ingenuity

這組詞都可表示“個人的能力”。其區別是：

1.ability指人表現出來的實際能力,即做事或行動的能力;

capacity用于物時指容納能力,用于人時指潛在的能力,尤指接受能力、領悟性、敏感度等,接of短語時還含有除必需的技能外還須具有做某事的意志或力量的意味;

capability指從事某項工作或達到某一目的所必需的才能；

talent表示做某事的特殊才能；

ingenuity表示設計發明的能力；

genius表示天賦的高度才智，在本組詞中語義最強。

2.ability指先天具備的或后天習得的能力；

capability指天生的或潛在的能力；

talent和genius都指天資，但talent含有這種天資可在訓練或使用中不斷成熟或完善的意思，而genius表示的高度才智則是不需努力而與生俱來的。

3.ability和talent主要用于人；capability幾乎專用于人; capacity可以用于人,也可以用于物。

4.ability后常接介詞at, in, for或動詞不定式; capability后常接介詞of, for; talent后常接介詞for。

例如：

He has ability to do the work, but he's lazy and won't do it. 他有能力做這工作，但他太懶而不愿做。

This room has a seating capacity of 60 people. 這間屋子可以坐下60人。

This task is far beyond the capacity of him. 這項工作遠非他的能力所及。

It is quite above his capabilities. 這完全是他所不能勝任的。

His literary talents are inherited by two of his sons. 他的兩個兒子繼承了他的文學天才。

The teacher detected signs of genius of that boy. 老師發現那個孩子有天才。

☆ 14世紀晚期進入英語，直接源自古法語的ablete，意為擅長處理某事；最初源自拉丁語的habilis，意為擅長的，順手的。
