Tell Vs. Say

Do you ever have problems choosing between ''say'' and ''tell''?  They mean the same thing, so it can be confusing.  However, the rule is fairly simple.  Check out the graphic below, it explains how to use each word properly.  Many students say ''She said me'' instead of ''She told me''.  It's a common problem for Spanish speakers, because in Spanish you can simply use ''Decir''.  If you still have questions after looking at the post, leave your questions in the comments, or bring them to our next class together!

Happy Studying!
