Difference between Among and Between

Posted by Unknown  | 

You use ‘between’ for a specific location, usually separated by two things.
EX: That’s an interesting way to use the space between those two buildings.


‘Among’ is used when the location is general and there are several things around.
EX: I love to go to the park and walk among the trees. 

You can use ‘between’ when you specify who or which, even when there is more than two

EX: I can chose between Sydney University, UTS or Macquarie.

But when you generalize, you say ‘among’.

EX: I can chose among several universities.
