A bit of English lesson

Who can tell me the difference between a BASKET and a BUCKET? To me, a basket is a container (often with a handle) for carrying or storing things whereas a bucket (also with a handle) is a container used to carry liquids. Am I right? And now I know what is the word for 紗窗 in English - bug screen. Also I'd like to point out what I just have learned yesterday. A hamburger is made of beef; NOT any other kind of meat. Any other kind of meat eaten between two halves of a bread roll is called SANDWICH. So, 麥香魚 should be called FISH SANDWICH.
