关于名词limit, limitation的区别,大概搜罗了一下网友的理解。
个人觉得如下三点讲得比较接地气。
其一:
A limit is something that is imposed (often externally).
A limitation is a shortcoming or incapability to achieve certain things.
其二:
A limit is a measurable quantity.
(Even in a phrase like 'limits of human endurance', the tacit assumption is that endurance can be measured)
A limitation is an attribute (or lack of one) denoting a limit to one's capabilty in achieving something.
其三:
Limit is for something you can exceed,
while limitation is for something you cannot exceed (or generally impossible to exceed).
综合起来就是:
limit:“强加的,可测量的,能被超越的”限制;
limitation:“本身的,属性的,不能被超越的”限制;

Limit与Limitation的区别
本文详细探讨了英语中两个相似词汇“limit”与“limitation”的区别,通过三个角度进行了解释:一是“limit”强调外界强加的限制,而“limitation”则侧重内在的能力不足;二是“limit”是可以量化衡量的,而“limitation”则是能力上的属性或缺失;三是“limit”是可以被超越的界限,而“limitation”通常是指难以逾越的障碍。
