4 -enquiry o inquiry; enquire o inquire?-
Nota d'usoNell'inglese britannico, l'uso di enquire o inquire è dettato da preferenze personali. Tuttavia si tende a usare enquire e enquiry per richieste di informazioni informali: He enquired after her health, chiese della sua salute; to make discreet enquiries about a person's private life, fare domande discrete sulla vita privata di una persona. Inquire e inquiry si usano soprattutto, invece, in riferimento a indagini e investigazioni formali: A public inquiry will be held into the cause of the accident, verrà aperta un'inchiesta pubblica sulle cause dell'incidente; A commission was established to inquire into conditions in the prison, fu creata una commissione per indagare sulle condizioni della prigione. Nell'inglese americano si preferisce sempre inquiry in entrambi i contesti.English-Italian dictionary > -enquiry o inquiry; enquire o inquire?-
