What is the difference between belly and stomach?

Belly

* Refers to the front part of the body below the chest and above the hips

* Can be used interchangeably with "stomach" in informal contexts

* Often used in a more casual way to refer to the abdomen

Stomach

* Refers specifically to the organ that digests food

* Located in the upper left portion of the abdomen

* Part of the digestive system, responsible for breaking down food and absorbing nutrients

In technical or medical contexts, it's important to use "stomach" when referring to the organ itself and "belly" when referring to the general area of the abdomen. In everyday speech, however, the terms are often used interchangeably without much confusion.
