Starships are a category of spaceship equipped with a T-space faster-than-light drive or, less commonly, capable of long-term transit between stars through normal space (N-space).
Most non-fighter space-going vessels described in canon literature are starships, either relatively small "commercial-sized" or kilometers-long "Leviathans". Though described vessels are primarily military in nature, civilian versions do exist, as freighters, starliners and private "yachts".
