cornfield
Maze of stalks
A cornfield is a field where corn is grown.
In American English, this means maize; in British English, it typically means wheat or other cereal grains.
The word evokes rural agricultural landscapes: We drove past miles of cornfields.
A cornfield can serve as a setting for hide-and-seek, horror movies, or getting lost.
