Hi everybody I have a question about the verbs "conduct" and "carry out". Are they synonyns? Are they used for the same purpose? or there is a slight difference , perhaps "conduct" means the way you organize the taks?. I have the doubt. For example: She carried ut the task efficiently. She conducted the task efficiently Thanks in advance |

Found this on Internet: In many cases they are interchangeable, but, "Carry out" can suggest that you are following instructions or a protocol, or an order, while "conduct" is usually for the person or organization leading the operation. Also, conduct isn�t usually used for a single action, but for a process with many steps.
"Conduct a survey" and "carry out a survey" are the same, but "carry out orders" is correct while "conduct orders" doesn�t make sense.Sounds good! |
