contend, compete, contest这组词的共同意思是“争论,竞争”。其区别在于: compete指在体育或辩论等需竞争的活动中,为征服或取胜而进行的努力,有时暗示在奖赏的鼓励或刺激下进行竞争; 而contend暗示竞争的紧张程度，通常指双方成功的机会相等,所以,为取胜或征服对方,就需要艰苦的努力,强调奋斗或斗争的必要性; contest则指在竞争中毫无保留地展示自己,比如在总统竞选中,双方尽力展示自己的优势,以战胜对方。 contend, cope, fight这组词的共同意思是“争斗”。其区别在于: 1.contend表示与某人对峙或对立的争斗,侧重指压倒对方的欲望或所作出的努力; cope指均等之势的抗衡、对抗,也可指面临灾难、困难或变故等; fight指精神方面的战斗及用拳头或用武器进行打斗,强调体力和勇气。 2.contend和cope多用作不及物动词,后常接介词with; 而fight除可用作动词外,也可用作名词。 compete，contend，contest，rival这些动词均可表示“竞争”之意。 compete普通用词，含义广泛。既可指体育活动等活动中争取优胜的相互竞争，也可指为了自己的利益与他人竞争。 contend指为战胜或击败对手进行不懈努力，强调拼搏。也可指口头上进行有对立情绪或严重分歧的争论。 contest指为争夺土地、阵地、权力或荣誉等而展开的竞争。 rival指在两方或多方的竞争或比赛中，谁都想战胜或比得上对手。

contend的基本意思是非敌意、平等地“争”,其对手一般是人而不是物,其手段是“文争”而不是“武斗”,其性质仅限于竞争而不是敌意,其目的仅限于制服而不是打败。本词强调为取胜而付出艰苦努力的必要性及紧张程度,引申可表示“声称”“主张”。 contend作“竞争”解时是不及物动词,接介词about或over表示“为…争吵或争夺”; 接介词against表示“与…斗争或竞争”; 接介词for表示“为获得…而竞争”; 接介词with表示“应付,对付”。 contend作“声称”“主张”解时是及物动词,接that从句作宾语。
