There is a distinct difference between ""between"" and ""among."" ""Between"" is usually used to describe two separate and distinct things, but it can also be used to describe more than two. Consider the following scenario: Between the palm tree and the hut is the treasure. What is the distinction between hatred, loathing, and contempt? The word ""among"" is used to describe being in a group or in the midst of one. For instance, I'd like to live in a community of like-minded people. Distribute the sweets amongst yourselves.
