•relieve, comfort, soothe
•這三個詞都可表示“安慰”。其區別是:

•relieve, free, release
•這組詞都有“解除”的意思。其區別是:
•free指使某人或某物從某種限制的情況下解脫出來或釋放,後面常跟介詞from或of。release指使某人或某物較為具體地擺脫某種限制、束縛或痛苦,例如:
•He released her arm.他放開了她的手臂。

•relieve, allay, alleviate, assuage, lighten, mitigate
•這組詞都可表示“使某事變得能夠忍受或不太嚴重”。其區別是:
•relieve指減輕負擔、災難、痛苦或恐懼,強調使能忍受或忘卻; allay一般指減輕到確實消痛或壓驚的地步,但不一定完全消除; alleviate強調暫時或部分地緩解; assuage專指平息或緩和怒氣等強烈的情緒,也可指把痛苦減輕到可以忍受的程度; lighten指減輕負荷或重壓,從而產生輕鬆的影響; mitigate指緩和痛苦等的強度,但不一定暗示減輕到可以忍受的程度。
•comfort console ease soothe relieve
•這些動詞均含有“給人以幫助以減輕痛苦或悲傷”之意。
•comfort:comfort普通用詞,指用語言或行動對痛苦者給予鼓勵、勇氣和力量,從而減輕其痛苦或悲傷,得到安慰。
•console:console較正式用詞,側重緩和或減輕別人的痛苦或悲傷。
