Contrary to misconceptions, ameliorate and alleviate do have differences. While ameliorate means to actually improve a situation, alleviate means to relieve the stress of the situation, make it more tolerable.
example: To ameliorate the bitter soup, one might add other ingredients, improving the soup itself. To alleviate the bitter soup, one might distract the self while eating it, talking to friends, holding the nose, eating other foods, making it easier to consume. None of this lessens how bitter the soup actually is. It just alleviates the discomfort of consuming it.

To improve or make something better.
"To *ameliorate*" means to make something a little more like *Emilia Clarke* from Game of Thrones--that is, to make it just a lit'l' mo' bettah.
when you want to say the word "improve" but you spent at least two years of your early twenties/ late teens watching an irish laddie who once sexually assaulted someone talk about innane left wing politics for 9 hours a day and it had a measurable impact on your psyche.
Forsooth! I require thou to expenditiously ameliorate the materialist basis theory behind watching this fat man play bloodborne. Is giving him $5/month really going to beset the bourgoise capitalist class with tiredness?
