Best Answer

Grit is fine sand, only slightly coarser than dust. It's the kind of stuff found on very fine sandpaper or used in rock tumblers. It is abrasive and wears down whatever it rubs against.

Grits is a starchy foodstuff, a porridge made with cornmeal ground fine.

Grit is used figuratively to describe anything which wears others down without being worn down itself, including sports teams. "The grizzlies played hard and showed a lot of grit."

Grit is also the name of a popular American newspaper/magazine in the mid-twentieth century, and is the curious nickname of members of the Liberal Party of Canada.
