家庭用品の英語　　Useful English for Household Items

Hi Luke,
You shows some nouns and explain ‘Gold Nuggets’ and ‘Gold Bullion’ are ‘Kinkai’ in Japanese.
Then,let me just tell you.
The both are not household goods,right?
Anyways,’Kinkai’ means a lump of gold.
But,the previous two nouns in English are different on its meaning in actually.
How do the two words differ?
‘Nugget’ is countable noun and means ‘a small shaped lump of a valuable metal,especially gold’.
‘Bullion’ is uncountable noun and means ‘gold or silver in large amounts or in the form of bars’.
Then,’nugget’ has its form.
On the other hand,’bullion’ does not mean ‘form’ but ‘material’ in the form.
‘Nugget’ =’form’ of ‘material’
‘Bullion’ =’material’ in ‘form’
What’s the ‘material’?
‘Nugget’ =’a valuable metal,especially gold’
‘Bullion’ =’gold or silver’
The both mean not only ‘gold’ but ‘veluable
metal’.So,’nugget’ might be ‘platinum’ or
‘bullion’ might be ‘silver’.
Then,when each words will be explained as
itself,it will be required to add ‘gold’ to the words as specification of the material.
Additionally,’Bulion’ is ofthen used for
explanation of ‘Nugget’.
In such a way,either of the two words or both will be required to add ‘gold’ to itself.
There are three ways as example.
1.) ( nugget ＋ gold ) & ( bullion ＋ gold )
2.) ( nugget ＋gold ) & bullion
3.) nugget & ( bullion ＋ gold )
1.) The gold nugget is a gold bullion coin.
2.) The gold nugget is a 99.99% fine bullion coin.
3.) The nugget series of gold bullion coins
