What is the difference between 隠す and 覆う?


It would be really nice if someone could explain the difference between these
two words that both mean ´to hide´. Some example sentences that illustrate the
difference would really help. :)




隠す means "hide", but 覆う means "cover", "overlay" and "wrap".

覆い隠す means "to hide something from sight with a cover"
