cry：为最通俗用词，指因悲伤、恐惧、绝望，甚至高兴而哭。一般多强调哭出声来。如：On the day of mother's funeral,my father cried real tears for the first time.在母亲葬礼那天，父亲有生以来第一次流了泪。
weep：和cry极为接近，有时可交替使用，但weep较为正式，更强调小声地哭或无声的流泪。如：The
Granny wept again but this time for
joy.老奶奶又哭了，但这次是高兴而流泪。
wail：意为嚎啕恸哭、痛哭，指连续大声痛哭。如：The little girl wailed every
time her mother was away without
her.每当妈妈外出不带她时，这小女孩都要哭叫。
sob：指伴随着喘气、又近似叹息、抽搭着低声哭泣、抽噎、啜泣。此外，sob也可表示一边哭泣一边诉说某事，这时为及物动词。如：When
I asked her what happened,she only sobbed,hiding her face in her
hand.我问她发生了什么事，她只是用手捂着脸抽泣。
whimper：断断续续低声哭泣。用于动物时，表示发出惊恐的叫喊声。此外，whimper还可表示恐惧得要哭的样子，用颤抖的声音说话。如：When
he couldn't find his mother in the department store,the little boy
began to whimper in fright.当那个小男孩在百货商店里找不到妈妈时，吓得哭了起来。
sniffle：和以上几个词的区别较明显，指哭泣或感冒时抽鼻子，有时也可表示用鼻音说话或用悲哀而伪善的声调诉说。如：I
couldn't hear him clearly for he always sniffled his words
out.由于他总是用鼻音讲话，我听不大清楚。
