'Swine' refers to a pig, especially as a farm animal. It can also be used as an insult for someone considered unpleasant or morally bad.

用法与细微差别

'Swine' is formal and old-fashioned in its literal sense (farm animal); 'pig' is more common. As an insult, it's stronger and more literary than 'pig.' Rarely used in everyday speech except in science, agriculture, or figurative insults.
