Clay vs. Kabook — What's the Difference?

Clay is a type of fine-grained natural soil material containing clay minerals. Clays develop plasticity when wet, due to a molecular film of water surrounding the clay particles, but become hard, brittle and non–plastic upon drying or firing.

(mineral) A clay ironstone found in Ceylon.

A stiff, sticky fine-grained earth that can be moulded when wet, and is dried and baked to make bricks, pottery, and ceramics

A clay ironstone found in Ceylon.

A European moth with yellowish-brown wings.

A fine-grained, firm earthy material that is plastic when wet and hardens when heated, consisting primarily of hydrated silicates of aluminum and widely used in making bricks, tiles, and pottery.

A hardening or nonhardening material having a consistency similar to clay and used for modeling.

(Geology) A sedimentary material with grains smaller than 0.002 millimeter in diameter.

Moist sticky earth; mud.

The human body as opposed to the spirit.

A mineral substance made up of small crystals of silica and alumina, that is ductile when moist; the material of pre-fired ceramics.

An earth material with ductile qualities.

(tennis) A tennis court surface made of crushed stone, brick, shale, or other unbound mineral aggregate.

(biblical) The material of the human body.

(geology) A particle less than 3.9 microns in diameter, following the Wentworth scale.

A clay pipe for smoking tobacco.

A clay pigeon.

(informal) Land or territory of a country or other political region, especially when subject to territorial claims

(transitive) To add clay to, to spread clay onto.

To purify using clay.

A soft earth, which is plastic, or may be molded with the hands, consisting of hydrous silicate of aluminium. It is the result of the wearing down and decomposition, in part, of rocks containing aluminous minerals, as granite. Lime, magnesia, oxide of iron, and other ingredients, are often present as impurities.

Earth in general, as representing the elementary particles of the human body; hence, the human body as formed from such particles.

To cover or manure with clay.

To clarify by filtering through clay, as sugar.

A very fine-grained soil that is plastic when moist but hard when fired

Water soaked soil; soft wet earth

United States politician responsible for the Missouri Compromise between free and slave states (1777-1852)
