1
strong, passionate intensity of feeling
Very strong and forceful feeling or way of speaking, especially when someone is angry or excited.
รูปแบบการใช้:
the vehemence of [something]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes confuse "vehemence" with "violence". "Vehemence" usually describes very strong emotions or way of speaking, while "violence" usually involves physical harm. Another mistake is using the wrong preposition: we normally say "with vehemence" or "the vehemence of his reply", not *"in vehemence" or *"vehemence of he reply".

|
fervor (Suggests warm, eager, often positive passion; vehemence can sound more harsh or aggressive.)
คำตรงข้าม
calmness (Lack of strong outward emotion or excitement, the opposite of heated, forceful feeling.)

great force or energy of action
Very strong and sometimes aggressive force in an action, such as an attack, protest, or criticism.
รูปแบบการใช้:
the vehemence of [an action or attack]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners may use only "strong" or "big" instead of more precise words like "vehemence" or "intensity" in formal writing. Also, remember that "vehemence" is uncountable in this sense, so say "the vehemence of the attack", not *"a vehemence".
คำพ้องความหมาย
forcefulness (Neutral word for strong impact or effort; vehemence often hints at harshness or excess.)
|
ferocity (Stronger and more physical; often suggests savagery or brutality more than vehemence does.)
คำตรงข้าม
mildness (Describes actions or responses that are gentle and not strong or aggressive.)

intense force of natural elements
Very strong and sometimes violent power of nature, like a storm, wind, or waves.
รูปแบบการใช้:
the vehemence of [a natural force]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners often use only basic words like "strong" or "big" for storms. "Vehemence" is more formal and is mainly used in writing to give a vivid picture of how powerful a natural force is.
คำพ้องความหมาย
violence (In this context, emphasizes the destructive power of nature; vehemence can sound slightly more literary or descriptive.)
คำตรงข้าม
gentleness (Refers to soft, weak, or calm natural conditions, the opposite of strong, violent forces.)
