Want and Fancy 两个词的区别

Hello BBC, my name is Seang Tan, I come from Malaysia. I have a question about the differences between want and fancy. As an example, if I say, 'Do you want to come to my house?' can I use 'Do you fancy come my house?' instead? Are there other usages of the word fancy? Thank you.

Seang Tan, from Malaysia

Seang Tan from Malaysia is right to say that the words 'want' and 'fancy' can have similar meanings.

But what is the difference between the questions:

* 'Do you want to come to my house?'

* 'Do you fancy coming to my house?'

To find it out, listen to the programme.

Fancy a coffee?

We also learn that the word fancy can be used in a lot of different ways in different contexts.
