Preparing for a Listening Exam/Assessment
Listening Exams/Assessments are by far the hardest of the four disciplines (Reading, Writing, Speaking, Listening) as you probably know.
Defence vs. defense: how to choose the right word
One common error seen in many English write-ups is the correct use of defense or defence. Both words are alternate spellings of a noun which means to protect something from harm.
How to use cannot, can not, and can’t correctly and properly in a sentence
“Cannot” and “can’t” mean the same thing, i.e., the inability to do something. However, they are both used in different ways.
“Thank you in advance”: More formal alternatives
To avoid misunderstanding while writing, it is better to use alternative words instead of “thank you in advance” especially in formal emails as the recipient might misinterpret it to sound like “I expect you to do this.”
Fewer vs. Less: How to use less and fewer in a sentence
Less is a term suitable to qualify objects (either in terms of qualities or quantities) that are uncountable and in a smaller amount. Fewer is a comparative form of few used for qualifying small countable nouns that you can count one by one.
Learning the Meaning of Usage of Albeit
Albeit belongs to the conjunction class of words, and it is used to mean “even though,” “though,” or “even if.”
The Differences Between A Part vs. Apart And Correct Use in Sentences
A part and apart might be confusing to second learners of English for a number of reasons. Pronouncing these two words, you would discover that they sound the same way, making them homophones.
Who or Whom: What’s the Difference?
“Who” is used as the “subject” of a sentence or clause to express who is doing something (like “he” or “she”). “Whom,” on the contrary, is employed as a verb or preposition’s direct or indirect object.
