Mistake

Mistake通常是一种错误的选择(被事实证明错误)。

Mistake is usually a choice that turns out to be wrong.

Mistakes通常是偶然的。你知道这是错误的。换句话说，mistakes是基于行为的，并且可以自我修正。mistake比error更不正式，通常在日常讲话中使用。

Coming to this place was a big mistake. We only wasted our time.

来到这个地方是个大错误。我们只是在浪费时间。

Error

Errors通常是由于缺乏知识造成的。因此，该行为是错误的，因为它不同于规则、模型或特定代码。Error是比mistake更正式的词。

Errors are usually made due to the lack of knowledge.

在体育运动中，违反规则将被称为犯规。

You cannot say, “I does my homework” – that’s an error! You have to say, “I do my homework”.

你不能说，“I does my homework”—那是个错误!你必须说，“I do my homework”。
