There is none. Field, property, attribute are mostly interchangeable AFAIK.

disagree, it's contextually dependent.
Example: a yellow banana
property: banana - it can not be anything else (excluding if destroyed)
attribute: color: yellow - the color of the banana can change - left alone will become brown, black, slime, destroyed
but the color itself (not color of the banana) is a property. yellow is yellow, it can be no other.

Nah, Banana would by the type and Colour would be a property/attribute of the Banana type
|
|
|
|
|
Surely the type would be Fruit, as part of an assembly of Healthy in a project called Food?

Sounds like a fun weekend project, just need to spend 8 hours coming up with a solution name now

Only if the only thing you are going to do with fruit is classify them. If fruits have behavior, then banana is a derived class of fruit, and color is an attribute of banana. Your solution isn't very object oriented.

I would argue that the color/colour would be a calculated field that is based on the age of the banana. It actually seems like it should really be more than a color to account for spots.
class Banana {
DateTime _estimatedPollinationDateTime;
DateTime _pickedDateTime;
Color getBaseColor() {
return colorFunc(_pickedDateTime);
}
Pattern getPattern() {
... 10% spotted
}
Boolean isEdible() {
return true;
}
}

property is the value of an attribute?

a property is, well a property - the land under your house. Can't move it, it's fixed.
an attribute is the house, can replace it, can completely remove it, grass is an attribute, a hole in the proptery is an attribute - all those can be changed.
sooo, everything about your car is an attribute. The fact it is a car is a property.
ok, can get silly and ask "what if I remove all the wheels, is it still a car?"
well, it weelie is still a car, just missing some of it's attributes (so not a very useful car).

In .Net, properties can have get and set methods which means they are not treated that way, in .Net at least.

Yes, I read that. But the meaning in .Net might actually be the real meaning. Just saying.

When you list up the someone's inner properties, it's a tribute.

If you have a property, you will have to pay a tribute 
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

So the colour of the car is an attribute.
The wheel is a property in it self, but an attribute to the car?

What if I added some more properties and turned it into a boat and a helicopter all at once? Also it's important that it runs on raspberry juice (or whale oil) and has a robot as the pilot[^].

I'd say the house is a property, the windows are an attribute, actually the land is the equivalent of field which ties in quite nicely with .net.
|

Within .Net, my understanding is that a property will have a getter and/or a setter with possibly some logic in them. And an attribute would just be a public variable, for example, where there is no logic in the get and set.
But that is just from my experience, nothing official. Could be totally wrong.

I know the difference in .Net, it's the lingual difference or semantics I'm after.

No, no. A Bug is an "undocumented feature"; a "feature" is just something that might or might not work.
