What' the difference between "motorcar" and "motorcycle"?
In English-Chinese Dictionary, They are meaning：
motorcar 汽车
motor-car 摩拖车
motor car 汽车
motorcycle 摩托车
--------
"汽车" means "car"
"摩托车" means "motorcycle"
----------------

But in Chinese,“汽车" is different to "摩托车".
So, Could it be that motor car = motorcar ≠ motor-car？

motor car = motorcar “≠” motor-car？Yes, so that it is right?
motor car: 4 wheels
motorcar: 4 wheels
motor-car: 2 wheels

I have been thinking they are the same word before.
