同近义词辨析

annoy, disturb, bother

annoy指外界的干扰令人讨厌或无法忍受，或指某人故意去妨碍别人。

disturb 打扰，扰乱，指使正常秩序或一时的安定受到破坏，精力一时不能集中。如：I am sorry to disturb you.

bother 打扰，麻烦，指给人行动带来不便或身心上带来痛苦。如：May I trouble you with a few questions?

vex, trouble, annoy, disturb, bother, irritate

这组词都有“使人不安或烦恼”的意思，其区别是：

vex侧重指因不断的干扰而引起的烦恼，有时含激怒的意味。

trouble指给人在行动上带来不便或在身心上造成痛苦。

annoy强调因被迫忍受令人不快、讨厌的事而失去平静或耐心，多指一时的打拢或恼怒。

disturb较正式用词，多用被动态。指拢乱，使人不能平静或妨碍别人工作、思维或正常秩序，是程度较深的烦恼。

bother指使人烦恼而引起的紧张不安或感到不耐烦。

irritate语气比annoy强得多，指激怒，使发怒，多指一种短时间的反应。
