參考詞彙
(1)frighten,scare,alarm,terify,horrify,intimidate,cow這組動詞都有「恐嚇」的意思。
(2)是最普通的詞，沒有特殊的意義，僅表示「嚇唬」或「使…害怕」
Not wanting to frighten the poor man, Mrs Richards quickly hid in the small store-room under the stairs.
理查夫人不想嚇唬這可憐的人，所以她很快地藏到樓梯下的小貯藏室裡。
(3)在口語中的含義與frighten相同，可以通用；但是在文學作品中，用詞準確的作家總是把它用於表示把某人「嚇跑」
The dog scared the thief away.
那隻狗把小偷嚇跑了。
The firecrackers scared the cat.
爆竹聲把那隻貓嚇跑了。
(4)總用於表示不僅怕而且擔心，很像漢語的「風聲鶴唳，草木皆兵」所描繪的受到驚嚇的情境
…it can absorb the atmosphere of its new home and see that nothing particularly alarming is happening to its companions.
…它(指新捕獲的象)可以適應新居的氣氛而且可以看到夥伴們並未出什麼特別令人擔驚受怕的事情。
Hearing the siren from the mine, all the miners' wives were greatly alarmed.
聽到礦上的警報後，所有的礦工的妻子都受到極大的驚嚇。
(5)的含義是「使恐怖」，受到這種驚怕的人是不能自制的
Bruce engaged low gear and drove at a terrifying speed, keeping the front wheels astride the crack as he followed its zig-zag course.
布魯斯接通了低速擋，開車速度快得令人害怕；他在使前輪分跨地裂的同時曲曲折折地前進。
(6)horrify表示看到可怕的事情之後的心理反應，或者表示看到非常骯髒、使人厭惡的東西的一種心理反應
…and there they huddle, migrants in the favellas and barrios of Latin America,in shanty towns in Africa, in those horrifying encampments one sees on the outskirts of Calcutta and Bombay.
在那裡，他們作為移民擁擠在拉丁美洲的貧民窟和郊外，在非洲的簡陋的村鎮裡，在一些你可以在加爾各答和孟買郊區看到的那些可怕的難民營裡。
(7)的原義是使膽怯，現代英語中這個詞的含義是由於別人施加暴力或採用強迫手段而受到恐嚇，被恐嚇者「屈服」是這個詞的內涵
Aeroplanes have the reputation of being dangerous and even hardened travellers are intimidated by them.
飛機以危險而著名，即使久經鍛煉的旅行家也為之膽怯。
(8)不僅含有「嚇」得屈服的意思，而且強調失去了一切勇氣和膽量
…,in fact they did nothing of the kind, but children were then too cowed to let them know how they really felt.
……，事實上他們保持不了，只不過孩子們被嚇得不敢讓他們知道自己的真實情感而已。
