I hope your week is off to a good start!
I have a cool graphic for you guys today. It compares the definitions of words that are commonly spelled incorrectly or used incorrectly in English. Take a look and see if any of these words are words that you confuse sometimes!
This graphic comes from a site called YourDictionary, a site I found recently that I would like to recommend to all of you. This online dictionary offers dictionary and thesaurus services, and can even show you a word in a quote or example and give you a word list. Here's an example of a dictionary entry! This is a great tool to use, because sometimes very formal dictionaries use complex words in the definition of the original word, and the whole definition-seeking process gets really complicated.
Enjoy the graphic and the new dictionary tool! And tell me in the comments, which pair of these words is the most easily confused? Which pair was new for you?
Happy Tuesday and happy studying!
