The both .. and the meaning is depending on the sentence. Regards
Orange is a fruit and a colour
It’s estimated that around 47% of all English words are polysemous, meaning one word could have multiple meaning. Bearing this mind, decontextualized words may have several meanings, depending on the context they are used in. For example: The orange is a citrus fruit. In this context, the word ‘orange’ is a noun, so it’s a type of fruit. However, on the sentence ‘I like the orange shirt’, the word ‘orange’ is an adjective that describe the color of the shirt. Orange could also mean a flavor that is characteristic of oranges used in food and beverages.
Orange can refer both to the color and the fruit.
Orange is a color of a fruit 😊
None of them, It's my cat's name. 😉😁 Both are correct! 👍
Both! Orange is a color and a fruit. The color orange is named after the fruit because of distinctive color. The fruit is commonly eaten and is known for being a good source of vitamin C. So, it really depends on the context of the question!

It’s very common to make mistakes when you start learning English. What’s the most common mistake (grammatical, speaking, etc) that you have seen with beginner students? How did you correct them?

I think beginners of any language translate every word or sentence in their minds. This translation method takes long time to learn any language. They should focus on rather core skills of language; ie. reading, writing, speaking and listening.

Not so genius, but this has worked with my Asian and Latino students: Substitute all "Th-" in words with a "D-", as it is an easier starting point e.g. instead of "The", ask them to say De(almost like a form of pidgin english: de boi VS the boy). Its a matter of throat to tongue, where sounds with "T" and "D" are easier to begin with and then you will gradually progress to the "Th-" sounds as the find confindence and comfort. You could always tell them to pretend they are blowing out candles on a birthday cake; and for the "Th" sound their tongue should gently touch their teeth, like in words like "Thin" or "This". Have them practice the not so elated soft "Th" sound-- its like their tongue is having a short siesta on their teeth! Such a mental jounery and lots of creativity will get you through a lot of pronounciation hurdles.
