Thats what I thought aswell, once its laid and settles / takes a hold and turns into a lawn the. It would be classed grass

Turf is maybe just its name for when removed and rolled up ready to be laid

Aren't they 2 different things ?

Turf is thicker and grass thinner, 2 different seeds.

How ive always thought of it.

Turf = rolled grass with soil ready to lay
Grass = green lengths of plant growing on soil.

Once the turf is layed and takes hold it goes from turf to lawn.
