    What is the difference between a cave and a cavern?

    Question #113371. Asked by crazycube. (Mar 12 10 8:45 AM)

    		Caverns are a specific type of cave, one that is naturally formed in soluble rock and has the ability to form speleothems. The terms are, however, often used interchangeably.
