Usage notes [ edit ] In English, listen and hear are two primary verbs relating to audial perception. To hear automatic , unconscious , or passive perception of sound, while listen generally represents intentional , conscious , or purposeful use of the sense of hearing. The difference is expressed in the following quotation:
As the silence took hold in the darkness, Sam realized that she had been hearing , though not listening to, various low-level sounds—the hum of air conditioning and life support, the pulse of some faraway oxygen pump, the faint buzz of the electrical and lighting systems. —Justin Richards (1999) Demontage , chapter 5, page 92. A similar distinction exists between see and watch in English.
