1. The definition of sod is "grass-covered." A sod house isn't covered with grass. It's made of "bricks" cut from sod (grass and the underlying dirt).

Cheryl,
In the vocabulary sections of the literature guides we try to be as concise as possible with our answers since this section is only defining a word or phrase. Most of the pictures of sod houses we were able to populate showed grass-covered houses akin to the picture shown in the actual text. We will look into updating the definition to include the fact that sod does incorporate roots/dirt as well. Thanks for your suggestion!
