Re:afraid vs scare 1 Year ago  
i dont think so...

i think 'scared' is very common in informal speech and is often used to describe small fears, while 'afraid' is more formal and less common; BUT this is true only when they are used to mean the feeling of fear. also we use "afraid" with some other sense like.. apologetic refusals and bad news (I'm afraid that I can't help you)
