earth

Compared meaning: ground, soil, or land on Earth's surface (noun).

比较义项：地面、陆地或泥土——地球表面的部分（名词）。

• ground

  The general, everyday word for the solid surface beneath one's feet; used for sitting, falling, or standing on it, without any hint of soil texture or land-versus-sea contrast.

  泛指脚下坚实表面的最普通说法，用于坐、跌倒或站立时，不涉及泥土质地或陆地与海洋的对比。

  The children sat on the ground and played games together.

  孩子们坐在地上一起玩游戏。

• land

  Emphasizes solid ground as opposed to the sea, especially ground used or owned for farming, building, or living; often paired with words like farm, own, or dry.

  强调与海洋相对的坚实陆地，尤指用于耕种、建造或居住的土地，常与“农场”“拥有”“干燥”等词搭配。

  Farmers use this land to grow corn and wheat.

  农民用这片土地种植玉米和小麦。

• earth 本词

  Refers to the loose soil or dirt that makes up the ground's surface, often used when talking about digging, planting, or the texture of the ground itself.

  指构成地表的松散泥土或土壤，常用于谈论挖掘、种植或地面本身的质地。

  She wiped the earth off her hands after gardening.

  她在园艺后把手上的泥土擦掉了。

Ground, land, and earth all mean part of earth's surface. Ground is the general word for the surface underfoot. Land means solid ground versus the sea, often owned or farmed. Earth means loose soil or dirt. Land's 'country' and earth's 'planet' senses are not compared.

这三个词都可指地球表面的部分，但侧重不同：ground 泛指脚下的地面，land 强调与海洋相对、可耕种或拥有的陆地，earth 则指松散的泥土或土壤本身。这里不比较 earth 表示“地球”这一行星义项，也不比较 land 表示“国家、领土”的义项。
