A good page for information regarding words, and other things too, you can always search in the dictionary of the Royal Spanish Academy: http://dle.rae.es/ 1. Asistencia: is to be present, or to be present in an act. The meaning that this word have for help (ayuda) comes from the act of asking assistance as if you ask for someone to get involven in an act that concerns you. Ayuda: to cooperate with someone in order to achieve something. Auxilio: synonim of 'ayuda', can mean 'substitute', 'medical help' in the case of the noun 'auxiliar'. It, as well as 'ayuda', doesn't have the meaning of help because of a way of using that word with another meaning, like 'asistencia', but was "created" with that meaning. Socorro: is a help that is given in a state of danger. 2. Preparar: is to create something, or organize it in order to do something. So, when you are 'prepared', means that everything has been arranged for accomplishing a goal, as to withstand a situation. Capacitar: 'capaz', being able to do something, that's where the verb comes from. It is the act of making someone, has to be a person, able of doing something, making them capable. You can't capacitate a sandwich but you sure can prepare it. :D 3. Consejo: an opinion that is given as help. This is funny, because 'consejo' also means the group of people that assisted (asistencia) the king in his decisions. They take parts in an act that the King is involved in, and give him assistance. Asesoramiento: comes from the act of 'asesorar', which is giving an advice (consejo) or an order. So 'asesoramiento' is the act and the result of 'asesorar'. Wether it is the act or the result is to be determined according to the context where the word is used. 4. Subsidio: an economic contribution. It can be seen as an economic help. Subvención: Also, an economic contribution. It can also mean to go to help someone or to aid him in his necessities, not necesarily economic.
