## Word usage: 學習﹐ 學

Both words mean "to study" or "to learn". Whereas 學習 can be used both
transitively and intransitively, 學 is normally reserved for transitive
use.

    e.g. 我學(習)漢語﹐她學(習)法語。
        I study Chinese, she studies French.
    我學習﹐我弟弟不學習。
        I study, my younger brother doesn't study.

In the second sentence, the word 習 cannot be omitted.
