Change, a noun and verb, encompasses the core concept of difference between two things or states.
A change may be about different clothing (change clothes), money left over from a purchase (get change from a dollar), a deviation from routine (change things up), or a switch in transportation (change trains).
You can change a baby (put on a clean diaper) or change horses (exchange one for another).
