difference of "deliberately" and "intentionally" and "on purpose" Looked up the dictionary, but still confused about the difference of "deliberately" and "intentionally" and "on purpose"? Can you explain and list some examples for me?

"on purpose" is the most casual of the three. It's the phrase one would expect to hear from a child complaining of some injustice - "You hit me on purpose!". In everyday informal settings, you would most likely to hear and use "deliberately". People often say, "that car deliberately sped up as soon as I had a chance to pass, then slowed down again". In a sentence like that one, "intentionally" would sound unusual. It's best to use "intentionally" when writing. For example, someone once thought I had written "contemn" instead of "condemn". I replied that I had intentionally used "contemn", because it was my intent, it was the word I had intended to use.

They all have the same meaning, and can be used interchangeably - they are all essentially the same. "You broke that vase intentionally" "You broke that vase deliberately" "You broke that vase on purpose"

If you deliberately do something, you do it on purpose or intentionally. You intended to do it, it was no accident. You did it on purpose.. Your intention was to do this act. Examples: "I did not forget to send you a birthday card. I purposely did not send it. It was my intention to not send you a card, because I was mad at you." I shoved you when I went past you, but it was not an accident. I intended to push you, because you hit me yesterday, and I resented you for that. I pushed you on purpose. All these words mean the same thing. They are synonyms.
