Would you please let me know the difference between "RIGHT" and "CORRECT"?

Question

I have asked many professors(of english),but I could not find

Answer 1

right means you're turning right

correct means you're right.

Answer 2

They mean the same thing when they are used as adjectives.  However, each also has another meaning that are not synonymous.  That is right is a noun meaning a direction that is opposite of left, while correct is a verb meaning to fix a problem or change or mark errors, like a teacher correcting classroom assignments  

Answer 3

right can mean the opposite of left or it can mean correct.

sometimes it can be confusing when you say refer to something as being "right." people may not know whether you are referring to the direction or to something being correct. so you should say that you mean right as in it's correct.

Answer 4

right is a direction, correct is a confirmation

Answer 5

Correct means true or accurate, in accordance to standards.. EG: 1 +1= 2.

Right means just and is a word more to do with morals or duty.

or Right turn right. EG: Do the right thing.

I hope that helps.

Answer 6

I agree with Elym

sometimes right can just be was someone believes to  be correct while correct is definite .

Answer 7

Right can be a synonym for correct, but it can also refer to being morally or ethically correct.
