A: In this context:
She was really annoying Lia.
'You can stop acting like that.' Lia said
or
'Stop acting like that,' Lia said

Here they mean the same thing but I think 'you can stop acting like that' has more emphasis (it is more intimidating). 'you can' technically is telling the person they have a choice not to but I feel it is used in the opposite way (so it is no longer polite).

'You can stop acting like that, you know.' would be the literal meaning- reminding the person they can stop (advising them to stop, not as "rude" as either 'you can stop acting like that' or 'stop acting like that'). This meaning could also be relevant in 'you can stop acting like that' as well, it all depends on how the person says it.

A: stop worried is grammatically wrong , you should stop worrying that sounds natural

A: they mean the same thing but ‘stop’ is more commonly used and less formal than ‘cease’

For example, if you don’t want or like what someone is doing you tell them to stop. Another example would be saying the car is stopped or they came to stop. I’ve never heard people use halt unless it was in books and movies.

A: "Stop" means to bring a full end to something. It can be used in a lot of different scenarios, but for example, suppose you are on a flight, and someone starts kicking the back of your seat. You might turn back and tell them, "Excuse me, could you stop kicking the back of my seat?" The word "stop" in that sentence implies that you don't want that person to kick your seat ever again.

"Pause" implies that you will bring a temporary and purposeful end to something, with the intent to start it again later. For example, suppose you are at home watching a movie with a friend, and you want to get up so you can use the restroom. You might say, "Hey, can you pause the movie for a minute? I need to use the restroom, and don't want to miss anything." The word "pause" implies that your friend will stop the movie temporarily, but will play it when you are back from the restroom.

"Deter" is a bit different - it means that one thing prevents another. For example, I might say, "Nothing will ever deter me from missing school, except for being ill." "Deter" typically implies that some things are not preventable, only due to specific exceptions.

A: That's really good! It's very natural.

To make it perfect, replace "at" with "to", and place "the" in front of "4th", like this:

"Please round down to the 4th decimal point."
