羨慕與嫉妒都是人類自然的情感或情緒反應，兩者的界線有時模糊、甚至重疊，但其意義卻有天壤之別，前者為正面的反應，而後者則是負面的情緒。本文標題這兩個形容詞分別是英文中表示羨慕與嫉妒最主要的用字。
Envious 意為「嫉妒的、羡慕的」，強調羨慕別人有，而希望自己也有，是一種正常的心理反應，有為者亦若是，如 Henry is envious of what his neighbors have. (亨利羨慕他鄰居所擁有的東西)；My sister’s very envious of my good fortune. (我妹妹很羨慕我的好運)；Sarah is very envious of Teresa’s new car. (莎拉太羨慕泰瑞莎的新車了)。
