You might use innate in cases where there might be confusion with a different meaning of natural: for example an innate response is response that sb/sth makes because it is in their character; a natural response is more likely to be a response that sb else expects or understands. 这两个词在含义和用法上差别很小。natural较innate常用和非正式。在有可能与natural的其他含义相混淆的情况下可用innate,比如,an innate response指出于本能的反应;a natural response更有可能指他人看来合乎情理的反应Anxiety at a perceived threat is an innate response in any animal.察觉到威胁时感到焦虑是任何动物的本能反应。It's a natural response to keep your troubles quiet.对自己的苦恼守口如瓶是很自然的反应。 see also natural obvious
