CHOOSE THE RIGHT WORD shake, quake, quiver, shiver, shudder, tremble Does a cool breeze make you shiver, quiver, shudder, or tremble? All of these verbs describe vibrating, wavering, or oscillating movements that, in living creatures, are often involuntary expressions of strain or discomfort. Shake, which refers to abrupt forward-and-backward, side-to-side, or up-and-down movements, is different from the others in that it can be done to a person or object as well as by one (shake a can of paint; shake visibly while lifting a heavy load ). Tremble applies specifically to the slight and rapid shaking motion the human body makes when it is nervous, frightened, or uneasy (his hands trembled when he picked up the phone ). To shiver is to make a similar movement with the entire body, but the cause is usually cold or fear (shiver in the draft from an open door ). Quiver suggests a rapid and almost imperceptible vibration resulting from disturbed or irregular surface tension; it refers more often to things (the leaves quivered in the breeze ), although people may quiver when they're under emotional tension (her lower lip quivered and her eyes were downcast ). Shudder suggests a more intense shaking, usually in response to something horrible or revolting (shudder at the thought of eating uncooked meat ). Quake implies a violent upheaval or shaking, similar to what occurs during an earthquake (the boy's heart quaked at his father's approach ).These notes show fine distinctions in meaning between closely related synonyms to help you find the best word.

CHOOSE THE RIGHT WORD shake, tremble, shiver, quiver, quake ■ Shake is the most general term (buildings shook in Sacramento ): the others denote shaking of various degrees of intensity, and when used of a person, indicate more often than shake that it results from weakness or emotion. Shake and quiver are the only ones that can be used transitively (a severe earthquake shook the area ). ■ To tremble is to shake uncontrollably with slight, rapidly repeated movements. Trembling is especially associated with fear or weakness (the boy spoke cockily, but his voice trembled | she held the letter with trembling hands ). ■ Shiver denotes a similar slight and uncontrollable shaking, but, unlike tremble, it can be used only of bodies and other physical objects, not, for example, of voices (the spectators shivered and drew their coats firmly about them ). Shivering is most commonly caused by cold or horror (Katherine shivered and drew her coat more tightly round her | she shivered at the threat in his quiet voice ). ■ To quiver is to move lightly and rapidly and often results from strong emotion (Anthea's eyelids quivered | ‘Don't you love me any more? ’ I asked, quivering my bottom lip ). ■ To quake is to shake violently (the rumbling vibrations set the whole valley quaking ). Applied to people, quake indicates extreme fear and is typically used figuratively (those words should have them quaking in their boots ).These notes show fine distinctions in meaning between closely related synonyms to help you find the best word.
