The way I learnt was to imagine the shape stood flat upright on a table.

A square sits upright on the table and everything is normal. But if someone sits on it and squashes it it bends over to the side a bit, and that gives us a diamond - a square that somebody's sat on.

The technical difference is that all the angles in a square are equal (which is why it stands upright) while the angles in a diamond are different (because it's been sat on).
