    这组词都可表示“想法,概念”。它们的区别是:
    idea是日常用语,使用范围广,指一种“想法”,也可用于学术方面,指“观念”“概念”。conception所指的“概念”“观念”“想法”是哲学用语,指理性的认识与概括的结果。concept指从同类事物中归纳出来的“基本概念”,也指一般人们对某一事物所持有的“观念”。例如:

    Her notion of delta was a lot of channels and islands.她所理解的三角洲就是许多水道和岛屿。
    thought作“思想”“思维活动”解时指经过推理与思考而产生的看法,也指较全面、较系统的思想。例如:
