Wilful and headstrong are always disapproving terms: a wilful or headstrong person is always wrong and the people trying to oppose or advise them are always right. A strong-willed person may be right or wrong but does not listen to advice. Obstinate often suggests that sb will not change their behaviour simply in order to be difficult and cause problems for other people. Stubborn can suggest this too, but it can also be admiring or approving, as in the phrase stubborn determination. * wilful和headstrong总带有贬义,它们所修饰的人总是错误的,而设法反对他们或给他们提建议的人总是正确的。strong-willed所修饰的人可对可错,反正不听劝告。obstinate常意味着为了让别人难受而拒绝改变自己的行为。stubborn也可带有这样的意思,但也可有令人钦佩或赞同之意,例如在短语stubborn determination(坚定的决心)中。
