Hello everyone,
I've been thinking about the difference between "fade away" and "melt away" for a month. Even advanced dictionaries couldn't help me that much.
Can anybody help me with that please?

Hello,
A colour will fade away.
Snow will melt away.
Both will vanish, disappear.

Hello,
In general:
Abstract, sensual things fade away e.g. colours, sounds, smells, love, beauty.
Real things melt away e.g. snow, crowds, traffic, money
Both verbs describe the same idea of a slow disappearing process.
