よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes say *"quit to do something"* (e.g. *"I quit to smoke"*). The correct pattern is *"quit doing something"* (e.g. *"I quit smoking"*). Learners also confuse "quit" and "stop"; both are possible, but "quit" often sounds more final or permanent, especially with habits.
意味
stop an activity or habit
コロケーション
quit smoking
|quit drinking
|quit complaining
|quit trying
|quit playing
|quit the habit
類義語
stop (The most general word; does not suggest permanence as strongly as "quit" often does.)
|
give up (Similar meaning but slightly more emotional or dramatic; often about habits or efforts.)
|
cease (More formal and less common in everyday speech than "quit".)
対義語
continue (Emphasizes not stopping an activity that has already started.)
|
