00My response to you means that the words you asked about all mean the same thing. 01i00Afraid of02i00 means the same thing as 01i00scared of02i00, and 01i00scared of02i00 means the same thing as 01i00frighte

0This seems to me like a very unfair question from your teacher. When you look up these words in a dictionary, and when you research their roots, you don't find much in the way of difference. You even find that one of these words is used to define the other. For instance, 01i00frightened02i00 is used to define 01i00afraid.02i02br

0These are quoted from Google. I don't see any difference, small or great. The four fears here have no difference in magnitude: going outside, walking out of this room, running into things in the dark, going back to school.02br

0 I would add one small difference in usage (not in meaning - as Davkett says, they all mean the same thing, with "terrified" being the strongest) - "frightened" is a bit more formal, "scared" is more casual, and "afraid" is somewhere in between. A young child is more likely to say "scared" than "frightened." 0-
