What's the difference between 돕다, 도와주다, and 도움을 주다?
Is there a difference between these 3 words?
I thought:
돕다 = to help
도와주다 / 도움을 주다 = to give help
Is that right? Then what's the difference between 도와주다 and 도움을 주다?
Thank you ^^

To explain Catherine's answer a little more
This is using the verb conjugating of 돕다 + 주다 to make an imperative sentence.
도와 주다
Please help me
This is changing 돕다 into a noun by using ㅁ and 주다 is give.
도움을 주다 = to give help
Please give help
If you are asking for help, 도와 주다 is more common.

Both have the same meaning, but " to give help" is adding a verb or an action verb to make your sentence used using the verb "give", for example : I want to help others in need can be I want to give help to others in need.
