I'll try to explain this as best I can. To be envious of someone usually means that, not only do you desire some posession or quality which they have but you feel resentment towards that person because they have it. It might be argued that the word jealousy could be used instead of envy in this context, but envy implies that you feel resentment towards the person, besides wishing you had what they have. An example of when the word jealousy should be used is, if I saw a girl flirting with my boyfriend, I would be jealous, not envious, because he's my boyfriend, not hers....http://www.englishforums.com/English/SomeGeneralQuestions/2/bpkpr/Post.htm#161743Wed, 23 Nov 2005 09:57:47 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:161743henriettaYour welcomehttp://www.englishforums.com/English/SomeGeneralQuestions/bpkpr/post.htm#161595Tue, 22 Nov 2005 21:53:36 GMT946f00bb-57d3-4b7b-a9a2-059b5341af52:161595henriettaHi Little Cloud.
