關於Respire的意思和用法的提問

A: A rare word. Basically it is "to breathe."

We'd typically use 'respiration' in talking about plants.

There are other, deeper meanings, but honestly I haven't used this word in forty years as a native English speaker. Don't waste your time on it.

A: These both mean the same thing, although “respire” sounds a little more scientific. Most people will only say “breathe”.

A: commonly used in order:
1-breathe
2-inhale
3-respire

I don't hear respire being used that much. It's not wrong to use it but it's just that breath/inhale is more common than respire.

They also mean the same thing though the way you perform breathe/inhale/respire might has a little different but it's not something that you should be concerned about.

for example:

breathe- you take air into the lungs and then expel it, like when you're reading this, you're breathing.

Inhale- you breathe in the air/smoke/gas.
the opposite for inhale is↴
Exhale- letting air out of your
lungs.

respire- to inhale and exhale, which is the same as 'breath'.

A: Respire, to a biologist, is a metabolic process where sugar and oxygen combine to produce water, carbon dioxide and energy. This occurs inside cells. Breathe, in mammals, involves exchange of gases through the lungs, most importantly oxygen into the bloodstream, and carbon dioxide out into the air.
