Q

Preferiría argumentos lógicos en vez ideas sin sentido.

A

I would prefer logical arguments Rather than senseless ideas.

“Rather than”: This phrase is typically followed by a verb and is used to indicate a preference for one action over another. It suggests that you choose one option instead of another. For example:
1. “I would prefer to read a book rather than watch a movie.”
2.. “She decided to walk rather than drive.”

“Instead of”: This phrase is usually followed by a noun or gerund (-ing form) and is used to indicate a substitution or replacement. It emphasizes the choice of one thing over another. For example:

  1. “He chose tea instead of coffee.”
  2. “Instead of going to the party, they stayed home.”

In summary, use “rather than” when comparing actions and “instead of” when discussing a replacement or substitution.

In communication, observations and remarks are both ways of commenting on something, but they differ in tone, purpose, and content:

Observations
Objective: Observations are usually factual and based on what is directly perceived, heard, or seen.
Example: “The meeting started at 10 a.m.” or “The temperature outside is 25 degrees Celsius.”
Use: Observations are common in fields that value objectivity, like science, reporting, or formal analysis, where sticking to the facts is essential.

Remarks

Subjective: Remarks are often more opinion-based and can include personal interpretations, emotions, or attitudes.
Example: “That was a productive meeting.” or “It’s really hot outside.”
Use: Remarks are more casual and are common in informal conversation, where people express opinions, reactions, or judgments about what they observe or experience.

In summary, observations focus on stating facts objectively, while remarks introduce a level of personal interpretation or opinion.
