What is the difference between "motive" and "motivation"? Thanks.
Top answer
Well, as I see it, 'motivation' refers to your interest in doing something while 'motive' means an inducement or cause of your action. Hope that helps.

Thanks. I didn't see the difference between the two words. Could you explain more? Did you mean "motive" is used when the action has completed, and what caused the action is studied?
