Answer 1

Answer:

We were sure that the the deer was hiding somewhere among the bushes.

Explanation:

Among and Between are usually the words we find confusing.

But more importantly,

Between is used when naming individual things.

Example: I’m trying to decide between the green shirt, the blue shirt, and the black shirt.

Among is used when the items are part of a group, or simply not specifically named.

Example: I’m trying to decide among these shirts.
