问题: what's the different?
You think the words "journal" and "diary" are the same in some way, but what do you think of this sentence: When he returned from his successful climb of Mount Qomolongma, Andrew finished his travel ___ (journal / diary) and give it to the newspaper. ? Would you tell me why you choose which?
解答:
仅凭语感，用journal, travel journal很常用，可翻译为旅行日志；不能用travel diary，因为dairy通常表达私人的日记。因为要give it to the newspaper，所以只能用journal。如果仅仅是自我记录自己欣赏，用travel diary也无妨。
【附Journal的解释】
A journal
【1】每天发生的事件，商业往来，帐目等的记录。当“私人的记录”时，与diary等同.
【2】（每天发行的）报刊杂志，定期发行的杂志报刊。
【3】严肃的学术刊物。
