corollary 【corollary】n.自然之结果Destruction and suffering are corollaries of war.破坏和苦难是战争的自然结果。

Accepted Answer

['kɔːrəleri] 
corollary(logic) an inference that follows directly from the proof of another proposition
Corollary describes a result that is the natural consequence of something else. You could say that your weight gain is a corollary of the recent arrival of a bakery across the street from your house.
The noun corollary describes an action's consequence, such as having to study more, a corollary to getting a bad grade. The word is often seen with the prepositions “to” or “of," as in “a corollary to fortune is fame.” Math enthusiasts may already be familiar with the word corollary, which can be used more formally to describe a new proof or proposition that follows naturally from an established one.

  A correlation is exactly what it sounds like: a co-relation, or relationship — like the correlation between early birds waking up and the sun rising. But corollary is more like a consequence,  like the corollary of the rooster  crowing because you smacked it in the beak. Both words love the math lab but  can hang with the rest of us, too. 
A correlation is a relationship, but not a cause and effect one. In statistics, a correlation is some connection between  random variables or data values. Since correlation is a kind of relation, it's often followed by "between." Here are some  examples of correlations out in the  world:

Correlation is not necessarily causation, so I'm sure this has nothing to do with the  departure of Rahm Emanuel. (New York  Times)
  
    Their study looked  only at wider geographical patterns, showing a correlation between  an area's radon levels and rates of the skin cancer. (Reuters)

Corollary, on the other hand, is one thing naturally following another. In mathematics, a  theorem is a statement proven true through reasoning. Its corollary is a statement so closely related that it doesn't need to  be proven independently. For the rest of us, it's more like the aftermath of  something. Let's look at some examples:

The corollary to this finding is that dairy products have no effect on cough, he said. (New York Times)
  
    There is a natural  foreign policy corollary: those who see America as a work in progress are  less likely to view it as exceptional. (Time)

How can non-math geniuses keep  the two straight? Remember that correlation has an equal, though  not necessarily defined, relationship. Corollary is more  like a consequence.
