Emigrate vs Immigrate vs MigrateIf you move to a different country, you emigrate. For example, if you are Canadian and you emigrate to Italy, you aren't on vacation — you are making Italy your new home. THINK EMIGRATE=EXITWhen a person immigrates, he or she moves to a new country. During the great wave of immigration between 1880 and 1924, over 25 million Europeans immigrated to the United States. THINK IMMIGRATE=COMING INTo migrate means to move from one place to another, sometimes part of a back-and-forth pattern, and sometimes to stay. THINK MIGRATE=MOVE
