The distinction between Swamp and Moor
|
|
Hello, everybody here!
Can you please help me: tell me please the difference between the words Swamp and Moor. I had the Olympics, and there was listening about Baskervilles� hound. And of course there was a statement where I needed to choose whether it was true or false (there was a statement with these two words). So I need your help!
With Best Wishes,
Fedor. |

Moor is uncultivated land where growing crops is not viable or productive. It may, or may not, be OK for grazing some animals, but only the hardiest of mamals. There is vegetagion, and it is often covered in heather. There may be the odd bog, here and there, but it is not a defining characteristic, even though the weather can be damp and rainy. A swamp could be a combination of rivers, lakes, and marshes but it is mostly marshland. We don�t usually iuse the word "swamp" in the UK as we associate it with hotter climates. |
