strength

Compared meaning: physical power or intensity (noun).

比较义项：力量、强度（名词，物理性的力量或强弱程度）。

• force

  Force refers to physical power that pushes, hits, or damages something; it implies an active, often violent impact, as with wind, an explosion, or a blow.

  force 指能够推动、撞击或造成破坏的物理力量，强调主动施加的冲击力，例如风、爆炸或撞击所产生的力量。

  The explosion's force knocked him off his feet and shattered nearby windows.

  爆炸的力量把他掀倒在地，还震碎了附近的窗户。

• strength 本词

  Strength refers to the degree or intensity of something on a scale; it is used more neutrally and broadly, for things like coffee, wind, or signal, without implying an impact.

  strength 指某事物在强度或程度上的强弱，用法更中性、适用范围更广，可用于咖啡、风力或信号等，不一定带有冲击的意味。

  The strength of the coffee kept her wide awake long after midnight.

  这杯咖啡的浓烈程度让她过了午夜很久还毫无睡意。

Force and strength both mean a kind of power. Force is physical power that pushes, hits, or damages something, often violently, as with wind or an explosion. Strength is the degree of intensity on a scale, used neutrally, for coffee, wind, or a signal.

这两个词在“力量、强度”这一义项上很接近，都可表示某种力量或强弱，但语气和用法不同：force 强调外部施加、带有冲击力的物理力量，常见于风暴、爆炸等具有破坏性的语境；strength 更侧重强度或程度的大小，用法更中性、适用范围更广，可形容风力、口味、信号等的强弱。这里不比较 force 表示“武力，部队”或 strength 表示“实力，长处”等其他义项。
