Do "amiable" and "friendly" mean the same? Or is there any difference in nuance? I wonder if "amiable" and "friendly" mean same each other, or if there's any difference between two. Does "She's friendly." mean the as same as "She's amiable."?

"amiable" is what many here would consider "S.A.T. vocabulary". it's ok to say it, but people don't say it much any more versus seeing it written.

They mean the same thing. However, 'amiable' is not generally heard in spoken English - 'friendly' is almost always used.. You will see 'amiable' in written English.
