Difference between near and close and approach

"Near" and "close" are often used interchangeably to indicate proximity or short distance between two objects or locations. However, "near" is more commonly used to describe physical distance, while "close" can also refer to emotional or personal relationships.

On the other hand, "approach" refers to the act of moving closer to something or someone. It can be used in a physical sense, such as approaching a building or person, or in a more abstract sense, such as approaching a problem or situation. "Approach" implies a deliberate action or movement towards something.
