| − | Compare: 作() zuò ‘do/make’ | + | Compare: 作() zuò ‘do/make’, which is the older character; it seems that the form 做 was invented to specify 做 ‘make’ (more concrete), vs. 作 ‘do’ (more abstract), and this is how the modern PRC distinction is characterized (GFC); 作 is perhaps less common outside of formal usage, except as a noun (工作, 作业); GFC(2010) has 70 entries under 作, but only 39 under 做 (some of which are also wr. 作); only a few of the 39 are distinguished from something wr. 作, the main example being: 做派 ‘acting (theatre)’ (做功), vs. 作派 ‘style (of doing)’ (派头); in general, use the older form 作 in formal expressions, with abstract object/result, but use 做 in colloquial/informal expressions, with concrete object/result. |
