Tolerance and toleration
这两个词都有“宽容;包容;忍受”的意思,Interchangeable的使用问题并不大。但是,二者还是有区别:toleration更多用于政治和社会习俗上的“忍受;包容”,比如,宗教宽容 religious toleration。而tolerance 则更侧重于态度上的包容,比如“对拐卖妇女的零容忍”zero tolerance for trafficking of women; “容不得任何玩笑” no tolerance for jokes of any kind.
另外,Tolerance还有“公差”(They were working to a tolerance of 0.0001 of a centimeter)和“耐受性”(tolerance to alcohol)的意思
