(live的副词形式)(live的形容词和副词形式)

Live与stay的用法区别

Live和stay都是动词，用法比较简单，都表示驻留某地。

Live时长期驻留某地，可以时永久居民，而stay是短期的暂时居住。

Live: You have a home in a place you live (long time)

Stay: You are in a place for a while as a guest.

例如：
I live in London.

I'm staying at the Crown Hotel.

可以对比下列句子：

Where do you live?

你住在哪里？
