这组词都有“期望,指望”的意思,其区别是:
outlook多指根据征兆或分析对要发生的事情的愿望或预料。
expectation指期待某事发生或假设某事能发生,多含揣想的意味。
prospect与outlook的含义相近,但侧重对成功、利润和舒适生活等方面的期待。
hope通常指建立在愿望基础上的期待。这种期待有可能发生或实现,但也可能相反。

1530年代,“等待或带着自信的期待的状态或条件”,源自法语 expectation(14世纪)或直接源自拉丁语 expectationem/exspectationem(主格 expectatio/exspectatio)“期待,等待”的名词,是 expectare/exspectare “等待,期待”(见 expect)的过去分词词干的动作名词。相关词汇: Expectations “关于可能发生的事情的预先设想”,在狄更斯的《远大前程》中,它的意义是“未来好的前景”,如财产、晋升等(1660年代)。
