exRangerJune 2019 Similarly, one could use "taste" and "try" interchangably as follows: 1. Have you tasted the salad? 2. Have you tried the salad? Both are equally acceptable and convey the same meaning. - exRanger |
exRangerJune 2019 Agree w/ Tace: in Englishconversation folks will usually use "try" as in "Try X" rather than "Taste X". They also use -- incorrectly -- the word "taste" to describe "flavor", e.g., "What does X taste like?" rather than "What flavor is X?". But know this: it iscorrect, if one so desires, to use the word "taste" instead of "try", particularly in the imperitive form, e.g., "Taste it." or "Taste this." |
TaceJune 2019 Say, "Let's try." I think it is like trying to beat another team in sports and you hope you do. You are now going to try a dessert and hope it is a good choice. Even if you went to a wine tasting where you sample many different wines, you wouldn't say, "Let's taste the Pinot next." Use "taste" to describe how it tastes to you. "It tastes like my mother's," or something like that. |
