I love Wrholt's examples. :thumbup:


Now, how about some words that English students have trouble with?

- The coach where the coach was riding is late so I coach today.

- Can you open this can please?

- This kind of people is kind.

- I drew a pen for chickens with my new pen.

- I can't bear to watch a bear in my yard.

- Would you mind telling me what's in your mind?

- Finally, I'm unable to make a sentence with all the meanings of "mean(s)". (I very recently learnt that "skillful" is among them, and I was quite baffled by the context where no definition I knew of the word matched the sentence.)

So don't worry, we are always learning something, but with dedication and patience you will manage to understand and make yourself be understood.
