One will see you later, the other will see you after a while.

BOTH ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS

But not Ireland. A lot of ppl don't know this

or as we were taught, poisonous: hurts if you bite it, venomous: hurts if it bites you.

The one I hate is flammable & inflammable meaning the same thing. As a kid, it really didn't make sense.

This is one of my biggest pet peeves! Drives me crazy!

But venom is classified as a poison.

In the Norwegian language we use the word gift (poison) or giftig (poisonous) also, the word gift means married. 🤪

This is a tricky one for me because in Swedish we have the same word for both: “giftig”! So when we translate the word it gets confusing that there are a different word for each type.

That's why there's actually only one poisonous snake in the world. The grass snake.

what's wrong

When you bite it and you die, its poison. When it bites you and you die, its venom.

In Swedish both are called "giftig" = Toxin

It's actually poisonous and feminism*

and according to Super Mario, if I eat that mushroom I'll grow :)

Pit vipers, cobras, bees, wasps, Portuguese man-o-wars, spiders, scorpions, and cone snails are venomous. Dart frogs, sea slugs, and puffer fish are poisonous.

Either way no no no

See one is a mushroom and one is a snake. That's the difference :)

ouch!

So is my ex wife a venomous snake or a poisonous one? Trick question - she's both!

:D

Both will spit in your eye.

Both cute

In my language (Swedish) both have the same name but with "land" and "water" at the beginning of the word, like "waterturtle" and "landturtle".

I have never heard of oposumms but they are cute!

had been told 'shrimp' is used more in American English, while 'prawn' is favoured in British English

Good to have that made concrete!

in the uk jam is on toast and jelly is with ice cream...

ignorance, Nevermore.

They also have "capsule shaped" tablets.

seal=floofy sea lion=smooth

Geography lessons payed off 😂!

Crayfish are also significantly smaller than lobsters

I only know this because I am a cat nerd

I know the difference, marg is bloody awful !!!!

What is the porpoise of this?

This does not really belong here, does it? A champagne is still a sparkling wine, so technically it is a specialisation, not two thing that are confused but essentially are different.

Their expression say that they are disappointed in you that you didn't know this.

Muffins are a main course and cupcakes are dessert.

Do not tell this to all this alternative right movements who claim that there are certain "people" native to places, and that their intermingling with other "races" will weaken the national identity. We may form nations and e may come from different ethnicies, but we are all humans!

"I never know... What's the difference between a stalagmite and a stalactite?" "Stalagmite has an 'm' in it"

How do people not know the difference between a butterfly and a moth???

What do you call a Gorilla that has a Banana stuck in each ear ? Answer: Anything you like..... because he can't hear you

Armadillos are native to the Americas, pangolins are native to Asia.

I'm not sure about everyone else, but I'm pretty sure people know this. Right? Or is it just me?

I did a Masters and a PhD in anurans. The distinction between 'frogs' and 'toads is arbitary. Not all dryish anurans are short-leggedish, or smoothish, or stringy-eggedish, and not all mucussy anurans are the obverse in one or more of those characteristics. The notion of frogs versus toads is simply a gradient of perceptions with no biological significance. And the teeth thing that another commernter claimed is a nonsense...

Wasps can be pollinators - there are many species of orchids whose flower structures are predicated on exactly this fact. Look it up.

Paneer is awesome. Especially when coated with a layer of spiced corn flour or spiced bread.
