LoginScream vs. Shout
Both verbs refer to saying something in a loud voice, but they might indicate different reasons. This lesson will clarify their difference.
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
We can't really talk if you keep
During the protest, the demonstrators

'Shouting' can be for the purpose of making yourself heard and thus cannot be used interchangeably with 'scream'
