These words can be considered synonyms of each other. For example: ‘She is afraid’ and ‘she is scared’ have the same meaning. However, these words cannot always be used interchangeably. While the two words meaning may be similar, the difference lies in the grammar and usage of the words. Afraid means a feeling of fear or apprehension. Scared means being in a state of fear, nervousness, or panic.
