similar: all has a person(s) leaving they’re country
different: •migrants leave their home country due to poor living conditions and corruption
•emigrants leaved their home country to permanently reside in another nation •immigrants leave their country permanently •refugees are forced to leave their country due to war,religious violence etc.
interchangeably: to talk about something in the same manner without important differences
hope this helped!
