You can have self-control and you can keep or lose it on a particular occasion. Restraint is less a part of sb's character and more a matter of their behaviour: you can exercise or show restraint, but it is not sth that you have, keep or lose. * self-control指自控能力,是人性格的一部分。可以说have/keep/lose self-control(有/保持/失去自制力)。restraint不太被视为人的性格,而多与行为有关。可以说exercise/show restraint(发挥/表现出克制),但不能说有、保持或失去restraint◆It took all his restraint not to shout.◆She struggled to keep her restraint.■ˌself-ˈdiscipline [uncountable] the ability to make yourself do sth, especially sth difficult or unpleasant自律能力;自我约束能力◆It takes a lot of self-discipline to go jogging in winter.在冬天跑步需要很强的自律能力。 see also discipline ⇨ controlnoun
