Among vs Between

This 7-question quiz drills the difference between the words among and between.

You complete sentences such as What is your choice ___ salty or sweet snacks? by choosing the word that fits the situation.

The classic guideline is that between tends to deal with two things, while among is used for three or more grouped together. There are real exceptions in everyday usage, but that simple rule will carry you a long way before you ever need to worry about them.

Recommended level: intermediate.
