Escalate refers to an increase in intensity, magnitude, or complexity (like a war or a fight), while accelerate specifically refers to speed or rate.
Exaggerate means to describe something as more important or larger than it really is; it is phonetically similar but semantically unrelated.
نکات کاربردی
Accelerate can be used both transitively (e.g., 'accelerate the process') and intransitively (e.g., 'the car accelerated'). In professional writing, it is often preferred over the phrasal verb 'speed up'.
اشتباهات رایج
Learners sometimes use 'accelerate' when they mean 'expand' (increase in size) or 'increase' (increase in number). Remember it specifically focuses on the rate of time or motion.
