snack, apéritif, starter
Amuse is from the French amuse-bouche or amuse-geule and is a pre-meal appetizer that would be eaten with the apéritif, which is a pre-meal drink. The starter is the first dish of the actual meal. In a fancy restaurant the amuse-geules come without you asking for them, whereas the starter is something that you have to order.

light snack, dish designed to clear the palate, first dish served.
amuse - a light snack
apertif - a dish designed to clear the palate before the next dish is served
starter - the first dish served.

: an apéritif is an alcholohic drink (before lunch or dinner) to stimulate the appetite. http://www.senses.ca/party/glossary.asp

minimal dish to tease the appetite, drink before a meal, first real course
Amuse derives from amuse bouche, something served to tease the appetite - in France it tends to be a couple of spoonfuls of soup or maybe a few canapés.
Aperitif is a drink before a meal.
Starter is the first real course, smaller than the main course that should follow (confusingly called entree in the US).
