"Resemblance" usually refers to the similarity in appearance, shape, characteristics, etc. between people or things. It emphasizes the similarity on the outside, rather than the inside. For example:
There is a resemblance between the two sisters. (The two sisters look alike.)
The building resembles a palace. (The building looks like a palace.)
"Similarity" refers more broadly to any similarity between people or things, not just the similarity in appearance, but also including the similarity within. It can be used to compare the similarities between different things or concepts. For example:
There is a similarity between the two theories. (There are similarities between the two theories.)
The similarity in their behavior is striking. (Their behavior is surprisingly similar.)
In general, "resemblance" focuses more on the similarity in appearance, while "similarity" focuses more on any similarity, including the similarity in appearance and within.
"Resemblance" 和 "similarity" 都有“相似”的意思，但它们在用法上有一些区别。
"Resemblance" 通常指的是人或事物之间的外貌、形状、特征等方面的相似之处。它更强调外表上的相似，而不是内在的相似。例如：
There is a resemblance between the two sisters. （这两姐妹长得很像。）
The building resembles a palace. （这座建筑像一座宫殿。）
"Similarity" 则更广泛地指的是人或事物之间的任何相似之处，不仅限于外表上的相似，还可以包括内在的相似。它可以用来比较不同的事物或概念之间的相似性。例如：
There is a similarity between the two theories. （这两个理论有相似之处。）
The similarity in their behavior is striking. （他们的行为有着惊人的相似之处。）
总的来说，"resemblance" 更侧重于外表上的相似，而 "similarity" 更侧重于任何方面的相似，可以包括外表和内在的相似。
