The Difference between Hear & Listen
We use "hear" with sounds that reach our ears even though it is not necessary for us to try to listen to them. We can say 'They hear a strange noise in the middle of the night'.
The Difference between Hear & Listen
"Listen" is used to describe listening, focusing attention on going sound. E.g: 'Last night, I listened to my new Mariah Carey CD'.
It is roughly translated "Hear" is "to hear", and "Listen" is "to listen".
So, you can "Hear" a sound that you don't want to hear or don't need to listen to it. But you only "Listen" intentionally. Therefore, we have a conversation like this:
- "Did you hear what I just said?"
- "No, sorry, I wasn't listening."
