Yes, there are differences between a tale, a fable, and a parable. A tale is a story that conveys events and characters, often for entertainment. A fable is a type of story that includes animals or objects that speak and act like humans, with a moral lesson. A parable is a short story that teaches a moral or spiritual lesson using human characters and everyday situations.
There are shades of meaning for all of those terms. A tale is any kind of narrative, which could be realistic or unrealistic, factual or fictional, believable or unbelievable. A fable is a fantasy, especially a traditional fantasy that has been around for centuries or millennia. A parable is an instructional story, which is intended to illustrate some moral point, especially in a religious context (the New Testament contains several parables told by Jesus).
