Dan

Hi guys! Dan for BBC Learning English here. This time we're looking difference between prevent and avoid.

Prevent basically means stop. If you prevent something, you stop it from happening - often before it starts.

You can prevent something, prevent something from happening or prevent someone from doing something. For example: The arrival of the police prevented crime. Or: Losing my passport prevented me from flying. Or: I prevented her from slapping me! Wow!

Now avoid, basically means miss. If you avoid something, you try to make it miss you. For example: I avoided meeting my ex. Or: I avoided the slap easily! 

Prevent vs avoid

Prevent
Prevent means stop. Preventing something means stopping it, often before it has happened. You can prevent something, prevent something happening, or prevent someone from doing something.

  • Losing my passport prevented me from flying.

Avoid
