Bounce vs. Bound: What's the Difference?

Edited by Huma Saeed || By Sawaira Riaz || Updated on October 10, 2023
Bounce refers to a rebound after hitting a surface, while Bound can mean to leap or a defined limit.

Key Differences

Bounce typically relates to the motion of an object, like a ball, that comes in contact with a surface and rebounds. Bound, on the other hand, can represent a leap or jump, often in a spirited or energetic manner.

Bounce often indicates a repeated action where something, due to its elasticity or force, returns from a surface it has just contacted. In contrast, Bound might not necessarily imply repetition but can indicate a single leap or springing action.

Bounce has connotations with resiliency and elasticity. A rubber ball, for instance, will bounce off a wall. Bound might be more associated with agility and energy, as in a deer bounding through a field.

In the context of checks, a check that cannot be processed due to insufficient funds is said to "bounce". Bound, conversely, can also mean a restriction or limitation, like being "bound by a contract".

Lastly, when you "bounce an idea" off someone, you're seeking feedback. But when you're "bound to a promise", you're committed to keeping it.
