Crying.
Simple just maybe some tears down someones cheeks or a ruffled intake of breath, with the help of a slight sob.
Sobbing.
Tears have been passed down the face of the person and unable to breath a choked noise emits with wails of pain or sadness.
Breaking down.
Cheeks drenched with salty tears, past a series of chokes and gasps. The sobs becoming wails and wails to yells. intensity of the pain increased.
Though breaking down in a sense can be entirely different to how different people experience it. Wit a book you dont her or see whats happening, only words on a page to describe to you whats the occurrence. With the use of comparisons and figurative language we can "experience" more "correctly" or closely to what the author was aiming for. In a part of The Fault in Our Stars it states, "... he broke down, just for one moment, his sob roaring impotent like a clap of thunder unaccompanied by lightening, the terrible ferocity that amateurs in the field of suffering might mistake for weakness..." (Green 215).
This is more than crying, more than sobbing and breaking down to a very high degree. With the comparison of a storm and some one crying, it just shows how rattling and intense it is for the person experiencing it. With figurative language the book or scene becomes more than words in a page, it becomes more real. Like we are there or ca reach out and touch the characters. Or even more connecting, we are the character and feeling that pain.
