Consider or regard?


Consider and regard can both mean ‘believe’ or ‘realise’ or ‘understand’. When they mean ‘believe’ or ‘realise’ or ‘understand’, we don’t often use the continuous forms.

Consider takes several different patterns.


Consider + that-clause

Consider + object + to be

Consider + object + to have

Warning:

We don’t use as with consider:

Not: We consider this as a very serious issue.


Regard


We often use regard in the phrase ‘regard as’: regard (+ object) + as + noun phrase or adjective phrase:
