What is the difference for "Job" and "Work"?

Question

In the traductor "job=trabajo" and "work=trabajo"

Regards and thankyou for help me

Answer 1

Job is usually used as a noun. It's the type of work that you do. For example, my job is a nurse, or my job is a business man.

Work can be a noun or a verb. For example: What kind of work (n) do you do? I work (v) as a nurse.

I work (v) at the same job (n) every day.

Do you like to go to work? Yes, I like to go to work because I like my job.

Hope this helps.

Ahh, I probably should not mention that "job" (usually combined with "out") is also a verb (por ejemplo, "I job out the specialized work.") - Lector_Constante, Apr 3, 2011
