Is it just me, or didn't you know the distinction between the following either?

  • cloister = general term
  • monastery = cloister for monks (meaning "alone"; stay in the monastery; as compared to a friary; see video below)
  • nunnery/convent = cloister for nuns
  • friary = cloister for friars (meaning "brother"; travel and work outside the friary; as compared to a monastery; see video below)
