among or between?

I'm not really sure, but I think 'between' implies two objects, while among allows for more than two.

In general you can use “between” when you are talking about distinct, individual items even if there are more than two of them. For example, you could say, "He chose between Oxford, Cambridge, and Durham universities" because the universities are individual items. On the other hand, you use “among” when you are talking about things that aren't distinct items or individuals; for example, if you were talking about universities collectively you could say, "He chose among three British universities."

Thank you
