易错句子The two axes have wooden haft.

haft 是可数名词,复数形式为 hafts;主语 two axes 是复数,因此 haft 也要用复数形式。
handle 是泛指词,任何器具供手握的部分都可用,日常口语最常用;haft 专指工具或武器的柄,多见于刀、斧、锤等传统器具,语域偏书面或专业。现代口语提到工具柄一般说 handle,用 haft 会显得古朴或带专业色彩。
hilt 只指刀剑一类武器的柄,常含护手部分,并见于 to the hilt(彻底地)等固定说法;haft 适用范围更广,斧、锤、锄等工具的柄也叫 haft,但不含护手之意。专指剑柄时 hilt 更精确,指工具柄则只能用 haft 或 handle。
shaft 强调细长的杆身,箭、矛、球杆、羽箭的杆以及机械的轴都用它;haft 强调手握的那一段,多为木制。指斧、锤的握柄时用 haft 更准确,指整根细长杆则用 shaft。
