Is there any difference between 'swine' and 'pig'? #1 (permalink) Thu Apr 30, 2009 10:02 am   Is there any difference between 'swine' and 'pig'?		  
Hello everyone,

Right now, 'swine flu' must be the hottest topic around the world. I'd like to ask you a question regarding 'swine': Is there any difference between 'swine' and 'pig'? Is 'swine flu' a fixed expression? Could I say: 'pig flu'? Thanks in advance. Smile

PS: Good health habbits can help stop germs. Smile Smile

habbits ? Tut Tut Shi, habits.

Pigs, hogs and boars fall within the category of swine Shi.
