就我个人的理解 REGRET比较正式 而PITY是相对口语化的说法 就用法来说 比较好区别 PITY一般用形式主语不如Tt is a pity to hear that your desire has lost!很遗憾听说你的希望落空而REGRET后面可以接两个形式V-ING 和TO +V原形区别是ING形式表示很后悔已经做了什么事情不定式表示的是遗憾将要做什么事情例子如下:I regreted hurting her heart deeply~我很后悔伤了她的心I regreted to tell you that you are fired~很遗憾的告诉你 你被炒了~以上就是我个人的理解 希望对你学习英文有所帮助~~

词语用法
pity可作“可惜的事,令人遗憾的事”解,为可数名词,但往往只用于单数形式,前面常加不定冠词a,常用于“It is/was a pity...”结构,其后可接动词不定式,也可接that从句。在口语中that可以省略,that从句中有时可用虚拟语气。有时还可以把it is省去,直接用pity作为句子的开头。
pity也常用于“What a pity”结构中,其后可接动词不定式或that从句。
