@johnabs I think that distinction is meaningless here. That's like "oh cow technically can mean any female of a large animal, like the hippo, rhino, whale, or elephant". The scientific name of corn is Zea mays, so maize isn't really more specific or technical than corn.
Re: PETROLeum jelly 😂😂
@daeyoung Right, but Zea MAYS...maize...they're homophones. So maize is more specific than just corn 😋
@daeyoung Corn *technically* refers to any small seed or cereal crop, whereas maize is the plant that produces the corn which is colloquially known as "corn".
And of course they can't put crude oil in their car...they use PETROLeum jelly instead 😂
