Could someone explain the difference between "shout" "yell" and scream? In my head is like: scream- general form as a noun or verb shout - verb (call for someone, calls out and yell (with angry) yell at someone's face. No one could explain this to me once and for all. Are they interchangeble?

I think of scream as being more high-pitched. It’s also something you might do if you are afraid or surprised. If you saw a big spider you would scream not shout or yell. Shout is generally talking loudly. Could be angry but not necessarily. Yell I personally don’t really use. Pretty similar to shout, perhaps more angry.
