dinge 是不可数名词，指“灰暗、污秽”这种状态本身，多用于书面语；dingy 是形容词，直接修饰房间、墙壁、窗帘等具体事物。要修饰名词时只能用 dingy，不能说 a dinge room。
dinge 指灰暗、污秽的性状，偏抽象，多作不可数名词；grime 指具体附着在表面上的一层污垢或油泥，常与 wash off、covered in 等搭配。说到“一层脏东西”时用 grime，说到“显得灰暗”时用 dinge。
拼写上只差一个字母，但读音不同：dinge 读 /dɪndʒ/，结尾有 /dʒ/ 音；ding 读 /dɪŋ/，意思是“叮当声”或“凹痕”，与灰暗、污秽无关。书写和朗读时要注意区分词尾。
