發現 discover, notice
我發現了一件有趣的事情。
I discovered/found out something interesting.
我發現他每天很晚才回家。
I noticed that he gets home late everyday.
發覺 get the feeling
我發覺他好像喜歡我。
I get the feeling that he likes me.
意識到 become aware of, conscious of, realize
他突然意識到有人想要從後面偷襲他。
He suddenly became aware of someone trying to attack him from behind.
察覺到 become conscious of, detect
他察覺到好像有人在後面跟蹤他。
He detected/became aware that/suspected that someone was following him from behind.
I think they're kind of hard to differentiate using just English...they're all kind of more or less the same, it seems.
In my opinion, 發現 is notice/discover in a pretty blatant way...
發覺 is similar to "discover" but is more of a feeling, so maybe "get the feeling that"?
意識到 is more related to "consciousness"....consciously aware?
察覺到 is kind of like detection but again, since it has 覺, more of a feeling...
