What is the difference between avenge revenge and vengeance?

Answer 1

All three refer to "getting even, to punishing someone for having injured you or yours." To avenge is "to get revenge" or "to take vengeance"; it suggests the administration of just punishment for a criminal or immoral act. Revenge seems to stress the idea of retaliation a bit more strongly and implies real hatred as its motivation. The verb revenge is usually used with a reflexive pronoun: He revenged himself on those who had killed his parents; He revenged his parents sounds very odd and is rare in Standard use; He avenged them would be more likely. Vengeance is "retribution or the hot desire for retribution"; hence to do something with a vengeance is to do it fiercely, thoroughly, or excessively.
