I started a new system for learning vocab, and I've got three words that mean substantially the same thing. How are they different?

笑み
微笑
笑い

Thanks in advance!
祝 新スレ立ち上げ!

まず、三つの単語を意味の上からふたつのグループに分 けます。

1. 笑み + 微笑. 2. 笑い.

笑み = "a smile", "smiling" の大和言葉です。
微笑 = "a smile", "smiling" の漢語です。文学的な香りのすることばです。

笑い = "a laughter", "laughing" の大和言葉です。
__________

もうひとつ、「ほほえみ」という言葉も覚えておくとよ いでしょう。意味は上の第一のグループと同じです。も ちろん大和言葉です。
