WORTH, WORTHWHILEПрилагательные worth и worthwhile отличаются друг от друга по объему значения и по употреблению. Worth означает 'стоящий, заслуживающий', употребляется только предикативно, обязательно с дополнением, выраженным существительным (местоимением) или герундием: this is worth five shillings (this is worth it), this is worth reading (не this is worth). Worthwhile употребляется только в значении 'стоящий затраченного времени или усилий'. В отличие от worth, worthwhile встречается как в предикативной, так и в атрибутивной функции и никогда не употребляется с дополнением: this is worthwhile (не this is worthwhile doing), worthwhile experiment.Difficulties of the English language (lexical reference) English-Russian dictionary > worthwhile
