Q:
В чем разница между to take half measures и to take stop gap measures ?
A:
"Half measures" are measures that accomplish only part of what needs to be accomplished. Actions, policies, and plans that don't go far enough can be described as half measures.
"Half measures will not end in victory."
"Half measures are not tolerated at this company."
"They believe in their cause. They will fight to the end before settling for half measures."
"Stopgap measures" are implemented on a temporary basis to get through an immediate crisis--until a better and permanent solution can be put in place. The crisis is often unexpected and the temporary solution is usually ad hoc or makeshift, meaning that existing resources were used in a new way to keep things going for a while.
"Two of the best employees in Department A left at the same time. The company asked employees in Department B to help out as a stopgap measure."
"The legislators could not agree on a budget and passed a stopgap measure at the last minute to keep the government funded for another two weeks."

Q:
В чем разница между measures и sizes ?
A:
all three words are very related to each other. So you would also take measurements in order to get dimensions. so if you think of a box, if you want to figure out the dimensions of it (length, height and width) you would have to measure them.
So if you have three boxes, with a measurement of 60cm x 30cm x 20cm that would be it's dimensions of you compared it to two other boxes 50x 25 x10 and 80x50x30 the first box would be a medium size relative to the other boxes. so altogether you'd have small, medium and large sized boxes that you figured out the dimensions of by measuring them.

Q:
В чем разница между measure (noun) и measurement ?
A:
I think it's because a "measure" is what you use to measure something. Here, you are trying to measure the outcome, so you do this with an "outcome measure". A measurement is information you get after measuring something. "I measured my table, and the measurements were 4 feet by 6 feet". It's a little confusing, but I hope that helps!
