Hi! My friend said that her younger brother, a minor, dreams of becoming a miner one day to dig for gold. The wordplay confused me for a moment. Can you explain how these two words differ in meaning and usage?

Hello teacher, last weekend in the park, I overheard a child tell her parent, "I threw the ball through the hoop!" I paused for a moment, confused by how similar the words sounded but realized they meant totally different things. Can you please explain the difference between "threw" and "through."

Sam, my son was chatting online, his friend wrote "I peekt over the fence." He wasn’t sure whether his friend meant "peeked" or "peaked," so he asked me for clarification. Was there a difference between the two, or was this just a typo?

Kukii and I were talking about a famous monument. Should we say, The Eiffel Tower is located in Paris or located at Paris?

Hello miss!! Cici my daughter was watching a documentary where a character said, "I used to be used to this lifestyle, but I need to get used to it again." It sounded strange because of the repeated use of "used to."

Can you explain the difference between "used to," "be used to," and "get used to"?

Emily wrote, "She placed the book on/upon the table." Which one is better, and does it depend on formality?

Good day all, I was booking a flight online and saw a section for "fare" but then noticed another area about "the fair of the city." It made me wonder if they were somehow related. Could you clarify when to use "fair" versus "fare"?

My friend texted me, "I can't bare this heat anymore," and it sounded off to me. I decided to ask you whether "bare" was correct in that context or if it should be "bear." How both words are used.

Hi! Quick question: is it "within" or "with in"? I keep seeing both, and now I’m second-guessing myself!

I need your help with this, I was talking to my friend about a book I just finished, and I said, “I loved it! It was so interesting.” But then I realized I could have used “this” instead of “it.” What is the difference between using "it" and "this" in that context.

Hello :) , I was at a café, flipping through the menu, and I noticed "desert" written where they listed cakes. Confused, I asked the waiter, "Is this a dry, sandy desert or the sweet dessert?" He laughed and said, "Ask an English teacher—they’ll explain the difference better!" , so here i am

Ciao!! While reading a novel, I come across a line that says, “She took a long breath before she could breathe again.” Curious, Why does this author use both ‘breath’ and ‘breathe’ like that? What’s the difference?”
