用法与细微差别

'Parcels' is more formal or written than 'packages' in American English; in the UK, both are common. Used mostly for mail and shipping. Not used for very large cargo. Typical collocations: 'deliver parcels', 'send a parcel', 'track your parcel'. Can also refer to segments of land, but much less common.
