Word usage
- Note1."纠正" is different from "改正". "改正" is usually a conscious behavior, and it can be used in a wide range; "纠正" carries a compulsory meaning and is mostly used for more serious or obvious problems. 2."纠正" is different from "矫正". "矫正" is to eliminate deviations, and the objects are more specific, such as vision and posture; "纠正" is to eliminate errors, and the objects are more abstract, such as shortcomings and errors.
