How special var is in C#, var can't be the type of property of class C#

var is static typed - the compiler and runtime know the type - they just save you some typing... the following are 100% identical:

var s = "abc";
Console.WriteLine(s.Length);

and

string s = "abc";
Console.WriteLine(s.Length);

All that happened was that the compiler figured out that s must be a string (from the initializer). In both cases, it knows (in the IL) that s.Length means the (instance) string.Length property.

dynamic is a very different beast; it is most similar to object, but with dynamic dispatch:

dynamic s = "abc";
Console.WriteLine(s.Length);

Here, s is typed as dynamic. It doesn't know about string.Length, because it doesn't knowanything about s at compile time. For example, the following would compile (but not run) too:

dynamic s = "abc";
Console.WriteLine(s.FlibbleBananaSnowball);

At runtime (only), it would check for the FlibbleBananaSnowball property - fail to find it, and explode in a shower of sparks.

With dynamic, properties / methods / operators / etc are resolved at runtime, based on the actualobject. Very handy for talking to COM (which can have runtime-only properties), the DLR, or other dynamic systems, like javascript.
