Note that the verb tell is usually followed by a direct object indicating the person who is being addressed. He told Alison he was suffering from leukaemia... What did she tell you? 'What did she tell to you?' is wrong. With the verb say, however, if you want to mention the person who is being addressed, you should use the preposition to. 'What did she say you?' is wrong. 'What did she say to you?' is correct. Tell is used to report information that is given to someone. The manufacturer told me that the product did not contain corn. Tell can also be used with a 'to' infinitive to report an order or instruction. My mother told me to shut up and eat my dinner. Say is the most general verb for reporting the words that someone speaks.
注意，動詞tell后面往往跟一個表示聽話者的直接賓語：He told Alison he was suffering from leukaemia (他告訴艾莉森他患了白血病)，What did she tell you (她對你說了些什么)。句子 What did she tell to you 是錯誤的。不過，用動詞 say 時，若要提及聽話者，應該用介詞 to，What did she say you 不對，What did she say to you 是對的。tell 用來轉述信息：The manufacturer told me that the product did not contain corn (制造商告訴我該產品不含谷物)。tell 也可以和 to 連用，用來轉述命令、指示：My mother told me to shut up and eat my dinner (我媽叫我別說話專心吃飯)。轉述某人說的話時，動詞 say 最為常用。

5. 判斷;斷定;看出
If you can tell what is happening or what is true, you are able to judge correctly what is happening or what is true.

e.g. I couldn't tell if he had been in a fight or had just fallen down...

6. 區分;辨別;識別
If you can tell one thing from another, you are able to recognize the difference between it and other similar things.

e.g. I can't really tell the difference between their policies and ours...
我真的看不出他們的政策和我們的有什么不同。
e.g. How do you tell one from another?...
你怎么把他們區分開來？

7. 說出秘密;泄密
If you tell, you reveal or give away a secret.

e.g. Many of the children know who they are but are not telling.
許多孩子知道他們是誰，可就是不說。

8. (事實、事件)表明，說明，顯示
If facts or events tell you something, they reveal certain information to you through ways other than speech.
