Parley通常意味着与敌人交谈。这意味着停止战斗一段时间或同意停火。 Negotiate不一定是在敌人之间,而是有同意相同条件或达成协议的意思。所以说, parley的上下文比negotiate更有限。示例: The two rival schools decided to parley so they could have their school dance together. (两所竞争的学校决定一起商量校舞。) 例子: I negotiated with the store owner for a better price on the chair. (我与经理协商要在椅子上获得折扣。)示例: We need to negotiate a new contract if I'm going to continue working with you. (如果我继续与你合作,我将不得不签署一份新合同。)
