  • What is the difference between adverbs and adverbs in English?
    Best answer

    Hi, Ibrahim! You must have meant - the difference between adverbs and adjectives. Sometimes they are the same - then they are mostly irregular - fast fast. He does things fast. - ADV + VERB He is a fast speaker. - ADJ + NOUN In 99% the difference is the addition of -LY to an ADJECTIVE (answers to a question WHAT IS HE LIKE? eg.) -careful- and ---> that's how you get the ADVERB (answers to a question HOW?) -carefully- He is a careful driver. - ADJ + NOUN He drives carefully. - ADV + VERB

  • Which books do you prefer? Mindset for IELTS or the Complete IELTS series?
    Best answer

    Neither. Why? Because the secret to a high IELTS band score is to have a wide vocabulary and lexical resource. To do that is to speak, write, listen and read as much as you can. If you couple these four things with the help of an IELTS preparation tutor, your time will be better spent than if you were to read about what to do. You learn by DOING, not by reading a book, especially a text book. Remember, English is a dynamic living language, not a subject like Geography.
