LoginScream vs. Shout
Both 'scream' and 'shout' mean to say something in loud voice. However, while 'scream' is usually associated with strong feelings of anger, fear, etc., 'shout' might result from the need to be heard by someone in a noisy environment. This lesson will further clarify this difference.
Difference in Reason
'Scream' typically refers to saying something in a high-pitched and loud voice that is often associated with strong emotions such as fear, excitement, anger, etc. 'Shout' also refers to a loud and forceful vocalization of words that can arise from various emotions such as anger, excitement, or urgency, but it may also arise from the need to be heard or attract someone's attention in a noisy environment or from a distance. Here are some examples:
She was screaming for help but no one seemed to care.
We can't really talk if you keep screaming at me.
During the protest, the demonstrators shouted slogans demanding justice.
The coach shouted instructions to the players on the field.
'Shouting' can be for the purpose of making yourself heard and thus cannot be used interchangeably with 'scream'
