同近义词辨析

among, between

among三者或三者以上之间

between 两者之间，三者或三者以上两两之间, Switzerland lies between France, Germany, Australia and Italy.

among, amongst, amid, between

这组词都有“在……之间，在……之中”的意思，其区别是：

among指三者或三者以上的同类事物之间。

amongst与among同义，是among的变体。一般说来among总能替代amongst,而amongst则不然。

amid正式用词，侧重指在某个地方的中间或被某个东西包围着或在非同类人中间。

between多指两者之间，但现代英语中也可指三者或三者以上，表示彼此间清楚的独立的个体关系。
