3. previous formal有什么不同

I think "formal" is more formal, if you understand what I mean. :)

再考虑之后认为，除了之前说的 formal 更formal (正式化）之外，可能还有以下区别：
previous 是“上一个”的意思，而formal 是“之前”的意思，之前可能有好几个，但不一定是上一个

4. previous与before的区别是它们的用法和意思的区别是

before 作 介词，连词，或者副词。
介词：可在后加一个时间点或者短语。 如 before 6 o'clock.
连词：连接句子。she had finished homework before we went shopping.
副词：作为状语。I’ve never been there before.
不能做定语

previous 形容词 作定语的。。修饰名词。a previous suggestion 一个预先的迹象

不能用作连词引导句子

before作副词时同previously。但是before偏重于 之前 先前的意思。previously偏向预先的意思。

5. precede before 和 previous都有“。。。之前”它们的意思的区别是什么

previous是先前的,
前任的,
形容词,后跟名词;
before
介词,用在时间上的"在...之前";
虽然有人也说可用于空间的"在...前面",
但个人建议不用,
感觉较不地道,
因为空间之前可用in
front
of
等;
precede
是动词,
跟previous是有区别的,
必须用分词形式才能表示previous的意思.
