    invent, discover, find, find out, look for

    这组词(组)都有“发明”“发现”的意思。discover指发现或偶然发现原来就存在但一直未被认识的东西; look for作“寻找”解时,指寻找的动作和过程; find指寻找的结果,即“找到”,是非延续性动词,不如discover正式; find out指经过观察、调查把某事、某物查出来,搞清楚,弄明白,多用于复杂而不易直接查出的情况; invent指发明原来不存在的东西,有时也可指虚构、捏造。例如:
    Whilhelm Roentgen discovered X rays.威尔海尔姆·伦琴发现了X射线。

    create侧重创造出来的东西以前并不存在,或者指独具特色的创作。
    compose多指音乐或诗歌、画的创作。
    design主要指在艺术或技术领域的创作设计,强调构思多于实际制造。
