Stroll, saunter, and promenade all mean a slow, relaxed walk. Stroll is the most common word. Saunter suggests an unhurried, carefree walk. Promenade is more formal, often along a set route. This does not compare their verb uses, or promenade as 'a walkway'.

这三个词都指“为了消遣而慢慢地走”，但语气和常用程度不同：stroll 最常见、最口语化；saunter 强调走得从容不迫、甚至带点悠闲自得的神态，作名词较少见；promenade 语气较正式或略带旧式意味，常指沿固定路线（如海边）散步。注意：stroll 和 saunter 也可作动词表示“闲逛”这一动作，promenade 还可指“（海边等的）散步道”这一名词义项，这里均不作比较。
