What is the difference between watercolour and gouache paints?

Gouache can be used on canvas or paper, although I would say most artists use it on paper. Gouache and watercolors and acrylics are very similar; the primary difference between gouache and watercolors are that gouache paints are opaque and most watercolors are tansparent / translucent. This is not entirely accurate, however, because highly-diluted gouache paints are translucent as well.
