what is the diff between a sweet potatoe and a yam?

Here’s an easy couple of points. I’m too tired to do a search so will someone pls tell me the difference between a sweet potatoe and a yam?

We (Americans) use the terms yams and sweet potatoes interchangeably when in fact they are two totally different things. They are not even related. Sweet potatoes are originally a South American root vegetable (we now grow them here in the US) and yams are said to be from Africa. I am told that you can not get yams here in the states and they are much bigger/longer than sweet potatoes.
