What is the difference between the adjectives "far" and "faraway"?
I don't quite understand the difference between them.They both mean "a long distance away".
We can say both "a far country" and "a faraway country", but we can't say "a far star".
I can only guess that it's because stars are very far away from us.

Question

Answer

the easiest way to explain your answer is by saying, far is a far broader adjective, and faraway is much more specific. for example a native speaker may say "my goal is still very faraway" because faraway is more descriptive than far.

Answer

There's probably a better, technical answer, but "faraway" feels more literary, more poetic.  Not uncommon, it paints more of a picture than "far".
