There are many other words I can't tell the differences, such as;
restrict/limit, classify/categorize, relevant/relative, predict/anticipate/forecast, faulty/defect, gain/obtain/acquire, major/primary/main, involve/engage, previous/preceding... Whew...
I wonder how I can understand their differences. All I can do at the present time is picking up example sentences as many as possible, then trying to grasp subtle differences.

Yeah, just use them as much as you can and listen to people using them. They're quite different but better than explaining, I think it's best you just use them and learn that way :-)
Yes, I can't grasp differences just by reading or hearing explanation. I am collecting many example sentences and will try to use them myself. Thank you!
Hey Sand.
Well, this is one of the most unique blog I have come across =)
The whole point if not only to understand what different words mean, it is also necessary to understand in what context words are spoken/written.
I just u buy a book called "Word Power Made Easy." its by Norman Lewis.
Definite means something thats bound to happen.
Obvious:SOmething that is a natural effext to a particular cause.
Distinct: Unique, peculiar.a thing/quality which may seperate one from a set of things.
