Gaiety and happiness are closely related, but they have different vibes and usage.

Gaiety

Meaning: A light, often outward expression of cheerfulness, fun, or celebration.

Tone: More external, lively, and festive.

Example: “The party was full of laughter and gaiety.”

Happiness

Meaning: A deep, lasting feeling of contentment, joy, or satisfaction.

Tone: More internal, steady, and broad.

Example: “She found happiness in her family and work.”

Quick Comparison:

Happiness is like a calm lake — deep and long-lasting.

Gaiety is like a fountain — bubbly, joyful, and expressive.
