Are a purse and a handbag the exact same thing?

I always call them handbags. It just sounds better than purse. However, I am wondering… is there any difference in a handbag and a purse? Or, are they the same thing… and people just call it whatever they prefer?

Answer #1

Not really, hand bags are bigger than purses. Purses usually fit diminutive stuff, where hand bags can fit massive items such as books..

Answer #2

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks. :-)

Answer #3

You know thats a good question. On the other hand I think a handbag is more of an outfit evening thing that u may carry ur money and keys in. And a purse is something you always carry everything in.
