Adobe VS brick

What is the difference between adobe and brick?
  

Top answer

adobe is a particular kind of brick that is pretty smooth on the outside (not as textured as other bricks) and usually either yellow or medium reddish in color. One finds it in the American southwest and in Mexico and Central America. Frequently, with adobe structures, one cannot see the individual bricks because the surface is stuccoed.
