Is the only difference between flavoured liqueurs and extracts the sugar content?

Is the only difference between an extract and a flavoured liqueur that the liqueur has added sugar to make it palatable on it's own?

Also are they interchangeable in recipes if I wanna mix up the flavours?

Thanks in advance.

    Liqueurs have alcohol in them, extracts do not.

    That's NOT true!! High quality extracts are made with Alcohol !!!!!

    Yes, generally speaking, Take a vanilla bean and put it in vodka and you will make an extract.(extracting the vanilla flavor into the vodka).

    Add sugar and it is a crude form of Liquor.

    You can add any flavor you want to your alcohol base to make it a liquor.
