- Keen suggests the wailing associated with lamentation for those who have died: Keen 指的是与哀悼那些死者有关的恸哭： "It is the wild Irish women keening over their dead" (George A. Lawrence). “是那些放荡的爱尔兰妇女在为她们的死者恸哭” （乔治·A.劳伦斯）。
- Whimper refers to low, plaintive broken or repressed cries,as those made by a child: Whimper 指的是低声的、伤心的、断断续续的或受压抑的哭泣，如小孩发出的哭声： The condemned prisoner cowered and began to whimper for clemency.那个被判罪的囚犯抖缩着并开始抽泣请求宽恕。
- Sob describes weeping or a mixture of broken speech and weeping marked by convulsive breathing or gasping: Sob 描述的是哭泣或者以强烈的呼吸声或喘气声为特征的断断续续的讲话和哭泣声的混合： "sobbing and crying, and wringing her hands as if her heart would break" (Laurence Sterne). “啜泣着并叫喊着，紧握着双手，她的心好象马上就会破碎似的” （劳伦斯·斯特恩）。
