Synonyms of "Faint" and their differences
Q:
Qual é a diferença entre faint e slight ?
A:
Meaning a very small amount, hardly noticeable? There's no difference – they mean the same thing.
Slight entered the English language more than 1200 years ago from the Viking language, while faint came from French about 800 years ago. This is the usual reason why we have two words for the same thing – different invaders.

Q:
Qual é a diferença entre faint e dim ?
A:
faint and dim mean the same thing but are sometimes used in different contexts :)
dim is generally used for things that are related to light
example: a dim light, the light is growing dim, a candle flame dims
faint is generally used for things not related to light
example: the faint smell of chocolate, the sound of their voice is becoming more faint the further away they travel.
a lot of the time they can be interchanged whenever and it doesn't really matter which one you use since they both will most likely make sense.
I hope I helped a little :)
