make与build的区别

问题描述:

make与build的区别
看到一个句子:
he has made neat paths and has built the wooden bridge over a pool.
请问:我知道make有制作物品的意思,比如make a cake,build是建造的意思,比如build a house,造路和造桥都是“建造”,为什么用不同的动词,这两个具体区别是什么?

另外
make常用在具体事物,e.g. make a conversation, make a reservation
build可以用在抽象事物上,e.g. build an empire, build a relationship
