Answer

I don't think that there is a considerable difference in meaning and they could be used interchangeably.

Answer

هناك فرق بين الحية والثعبان
الحية وتسمى كذلك الأفعى تكون عادة صغيرة ولونها يختلف عن لون الثعبان
أما الثعبان ( الثعابين) فتكون كبيرة 
يمكن أن نفرق بين الثعبان والأفعى كذلك في طريقة وآثر المشي

إذا لم تفهم سأحول أن أشرح لك بالإنجليزية
