collect and organize information

to bring information from many places together and put it in order in one report or list

Käyttömalli: to compile [data/report/list/statistics]
Tyypillinen virhe:
Learners sometimes use *compile* when they simply mean *write*, as in "He compiled a story." *Compile* means to collect and organize information, not to create it from nothing. A more natural sentence would be "He compiled a report from the survey answers."
Synonyymit
collect (focuses only on bringing things together, without the idea of ordering them.) | gather (more general and less formal; may not imply careful organization.) | assemble (stresses putting parts together; slightly more formal and technical in tone.)
Antonyymit
scatter (suggests spreading information or items so they are no longer together or organized.) | disorganize (means to remove order from information instead of arranging it carefully.)
Kollokaatiot
compile a report |compile data |compile statistics |compile a list |compile a dossier |newly compiled figures

translate source code into machine code

in computer programming, to change code that a person writes into code that a computer can understand and run

Käyttömalli: to compile [program/code/project]
Tyypillinen virhe:
Learners who know the general meaning of *compile* sometimes misapply it to any computer action, like saying "compile the file" when they mean "save" or "copy" a file. In computing, *compile* has the very specific meaning of translating source code into executable code.
Synonyymit
build (common in software development to mean compiling plus other steps like linking or packaging.) | translate (general word; in this context means converting from one programming language form to another.)
Antonyymit
interpret (in programming, to run code directly line by line instead of compiling it first.) | run (refers to executing the program, the step that usually comes after compiling.)
Kollokaatiot
compile the code |compile a program |compile from source |fail to compile |successfully compiled |compile a project
Teemat
technology |computing |science
Esimerkit
  • The program won’t compile because there’s a syntax error on line 42.
  • Make sure you install the correct libraries before compiling the code.

produce a collection from existing works

to make a book, album, playlist, or other collection by choosing and putting together things that were made before

Käyttömalli: to compile [an anthology/album/playlist/collection]
Tyypillinen virhe:
Learners sometimes confuse *compile* with *compose*. *Compile* means to bring existing pieces together, while *compose* means to create something new, like music or a poem. You compile an album from old songs, but you compose a new song.
Synonyymit
edit (in publishing, stresses preparing and organizing material for print or release, sometimes with changes.) | curate (focuses on carefully selecting items for a collection, often with a creative or expert touch.) | assemble (neutral term for putting separate pieces together into one product.)
Antonyymit
separate (suggests breaking an existing collection into individual parts instead of bringing them together.) | disperse (means to spread items out so they are no longer in a single collection.)
Kollokaatiot
compile an anthology |compile a collection |compiled volume |compile a playlist |compiled edition |compiled works
