Usage Note :

  • Begin, start, and commence all have a similar meaning, although commence is more formal and is not normally used in conversation. The meeting is ready to begin... He tore the list up and started a fresh one. ...an alternative to commencing the process of European integration. Note that begin, start, and commence can all be followed by an -ing form or a noun, but only begin and start can be followed by a 'to' infinitive.

    begin, start 和 commence 意思相近，但 commence 更爲正式，通常不用在日常對話中：The meeting is ready to begin（會議可以開始了），He tore the list up and started a fresh one（他把清單撕碎，開始另列一張），an alternative to commencing the process of European integration（啓動歐洲一體化進程的另一種方式）。注意，begin, start 和commence 後都可以接 -ing 形式或名詞，但只有 begin 和 start 可以接帶 to 的動詞不定式。
