فرق outskirt و suburb

Question

میشه فرقشونو با مثال بگید؟

مثلا suburb  و outskirt   تهران  کجاها میشه؟

Answer 1

"In the suburbs" vs. "on the outskirts"

suburb vs. outskirts

The main difference between these two expressions is the difference between the nouns suburb and outskirts. As you can see in the Learner's Dictionary entries shown below, a suburb is a town near a larger city, where people typically live in houses with yards rather than apartment buildings. Suburbs are also associated with a lifestyle oriented around families with children.

The word outskirts, which is always plural, refers to the edges of a community. There are outskirts around a city, and these might be suburbs or they might not. There are also outskirts around the edges of a small town.

Example:

suburb: a town or other area where people live in houses near a larger city
        ▪ She left the city and moved to the suburbs. [=one of the suburbs near that city]
   often + of
        ▪ I grew up in a suburb of Denver.
 

outskirts [plural]: the parts of a city or town that are far from the center
        ▪ We live on the outskirts of town.

در مورد تهران، لواسان میتونه suburb محسوب بشه. و outskirts هم تمام محله هایی که از مرکز شهر دور هستن ولی به خود شهر تعلق دارن.

outskirts حاشیه شهر است و از مرکز خیلی دورتر از suburb است. در مورد تهران محله ها نمی توانند outskirt باشن جون بیشتر مواقع این لغت به جایی گفته میشه که زیاد مسکونی نیست و از شهر دور است. پس در مورد تهران لواسان میتونه suburb باشه ولی جاهایی مثل اتوبان کرج یا اتوبان بهشت زهرا outskirts هستند چون هم از مرکز دورن و هم مسکونی نیستن.
