grain, corn

这两个词都有“谷物”“谷粒”的意思。其区别在于:

1.grain泛指“粮食作物”,也指“粒状物”; 而corn则可指“小麦、燕麦等的谷粒”。例如:

China grows most of the grains the world knows.中国种植有世界上已知的大多数谷类作物。

Corn includes such grains as wheat, barley and oats.谷物包括这几类,如小麦、大麦和燕麦等。

2.corn在英国与grain同义,在美国和澳大利亚只指“玉米”。例如:

He grew a field of corn.他种了一片玉米。

There are many feed grains in the house.那所房子里有许多饲料谷物。
