here are 10 more confusing words!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So many of you reached out and said my last newsletter helped so much when it came to mixing up words. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Thanks! Now I finally understand the difference! Do you have any more? I think I need all the help I can get!\u2019 – Rob<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of COURSE I do, sweet Rob (and YOU, FIRST NAME!) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here they are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Stationary\/Stationery: \u2018<\/strong>Stationary\u2019 means not moving. The train remained stationary at the station, much to the frustration of the passengers<\/em>. \u2018Stationery\u2019 is letter-writing materials. He sent her a letter on official government stationery. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Who’s\/ Whose: \u2018<\/strong>Who’s\u2019 is short for ‘Who is’ – \u2018Who’s going\u2019 to the concert tonight? <\/em>And \u2018whose\u2019 refers to possession – Whose umbrella is this? <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Than\/Then: \u2018<\/strong>Than\u2019 is used for comparisons. That car is more expensive than the other one we saw. \u2018<\/em>Then\u2019 is used as a time indication. First we will have dinner, and then we will have some coffee. <\/em>A fun way to remember this one is \u2018then\u2019 sounds like \u2018the end\u2019, which is also time-related!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Dessert\/ Desert: \u2018<\/strong>Dessert\u2019 is something sweet at the end of the meal (remember this by thinking of Something Sweet – also double S :)). We had chocolate mousse for dessert.<\/em> \u2018Desert\u2019 is where sand lives. I would cross the desert barefoot for a good gin and tonic. <\/em>You can remember this one because \u2018Sahara\u2019 and \u2018sand\u2019 both have 1 S! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Lose\/Loose: <\/strong>To \u2018lose\u2019 is to misplace something or when something becomes less. He wanted to lose weight.<\/em> \u2018Loose\u2019 is when something is not tight. His pants became loose when he lost the weight. <\/em>I hope now you will loose some of your confusion when it comes to confusing words in English!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See you next week!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Liefs, <\/p>\n\n\n\n
