關於Duty的意思和用法的提問

"Duty" is something you are supposed to do.

So all together this means "the ones who make laws should follow what most people want."

A: it is not a common word, you don't usually use in daily conversation but some common examples are

example "it is my duty to this country to fight in the war"

or "my family needs me so it is my duty to help"

strong word!

you don't really use this word in daily conversation

A: The cop has to be on duty tomorrow night.

A: In English, they are all basically the same and generally used interchangeably. Duty is seen more serious, while responsibility is the most commonly used in every-day speaking. Obligation is used in legal terms sometimes, for example, if you are filing your taxes, you have an obligation to be honest.

One exception to that meaning is that in English, if somebody is “on duty” they could be working or serving somewhere. An example is a soldier or police officer being on duty may be serving in another country or patrolling the city.

A: Indispensable: cannot be replaced
Inevitable: cannot be avoided.

A: they are very similar, but duty tends to be more associated with things regarded as moral obligations or very important tasks, whereas responsibility is used more lightly and can be used as an adjective as well as a noun

A: if it is while on duty or on the job it means the same thing

A: "Duty" stands for obligation. Is something you must really do.
Example: It is my duty as a citizen to vote in the next election.

"Responsibility" is something you need to do/care about, but you might not do.
Example: It's my responsibility to clean my room.

A: The first one is definitely the best. The second one is correct, but it would sound much better if you put the gerund at the beginning - "Taking care of it is your duty.". But you shouldn't do the same thing with the first one - "To take care of it is your duty." is not incorrect, but it sounds very strange.

I hope this is helpful!

A: Duty has two meanings. It's primary meaning is an obligation. A solider has a duty to defend their country, for example. It's second meaning is a tax you pay to a government when you are importing items into the country. If you gave me money with a promise that I will give it back. I owe you money until the debt is paid back.

A: *dirty

A: I am on duty right now (assuming you are saying this in the present), but I am also available to take English lessons via Skype.

Your first sentence is good however, I would recommend using I am instead of I’m simply because I’m is a slang word. (It is not professional)

Your second sentence is a little misleading. You are on duty but there’s (another slang word for “there is”) no call now implies that you are working but at that moment in the past there were no calls.

Assuming you mean Skype calls in the present, I would recommend restructuring (rewording) your sentence to “I am on duty at the moment and have not received any calls.” (Without quotation marks though (“ symbols”))

Your final sentence makes sense.

Altogether your new statement would be: “I am on duty right now, but I am available to take English lessons via Skype I am on duty at the moment and have no received any calls. I have time to take English lessons on Skype.”

Next you need to add punctation behind Skype (assuming it is too separate ideas). This is because you follow your previous statement with a redundant statement and it is this that makes a run-on sentence.

A run-on sentence occurs when you do not add punctuation after you finish a thought. In doing so you intend the reader to say the entire sentence without pauses for breaths in contemporary English. To avoid this say what you mean to out loud and if you need to pause then add a period but make sure that id you do so you have finished your thought.

A: ‘value’ refers to 250 billion, so they threatened tariffs on 500 billion (half a trillion) in Chinese goods

A: It depends on the context but: “you’re not required to attend the event, so you don’t need to go if you don’t want to.” - in my opinion is more natural.
