    The English language is crazy. The English language has a great number of words with a diversity of meanings. here's the top 10 list of words with multiple meanings that can confuse the learners. The words themselves are not difficult, but most stadardized tests assess knowledge of multiple meaning words, sometimes because of the unfamilier farmat of the questions in the vocabulary section. They can be grouped according to:different capitalization -- "You may see a rainbow in May."different punctuation -- "I sent my résumé hoping to find a job and resume working."different parts of speech -- "I like to run" (verb) vs. "I like to go for a run" (noun)different tense -- "I would like to read the book you just read."different degrees (literal or figurative) -- "The general ranks above the corporal" vs. "The plane flies above the rooftops."For more examples, lessons and games, go to:

  • How to use your human - A Cat’s Instruction Manual 235

    Are you a cat who has recently adopted a human? Watch out! Humans are bizzarecreatures who love their daily routine. They have cereals and coffee for breakfast. Boring. They sleep at night and never dream of catching a mouse. Boring. They can watch TV hours on end. Double boring! I wonder why they are called “coach potato”. You can play with a potato, while humans can sit still and watch other people play a sport.God of cats! Humans are boring!If they don’t have a child of their own, they’ll get on your nerves buying you funny clothes that make you look stupid or toys you don’t want to play with. They hold you in their arms when you’d rather climb a tree and give a bath in their tub. Be careful when you enter a room accompanied by your human. They are so clumsy and can shut the door on your tail. Fight hard when they try to give a bath, unless you know how to swim. Beware of humans! They call themselves owners. Let them think they are, but follow t

  • "Selfie" beats "Twerk"... 224

    LONDON (Reuters) - "Selfie" - a self portrait usually on a smartphone or webcam - was selected word of the year on Tuesday by the Oxford Dictionaries, based on a 17,000 percent rise in its usage from a year ago. It evolved from a social media buzzword to mainstream shorthand for a self-portrait photograph and its popularity is based on research done by Oxford Dictionaries editors. From "Selfie" other news words appeared:"helfie" for a picture taken of someone's own hair "belfie" for taking a picture of your own posterior "drelfie" for a self portrait while in a drunken state. A new infographic will soon be produced for the new 2013 most popular words. Till then, here's the one for 2012: [Infographic provided by Grammar.net]

  • HOPE FOR WALTER Humanitarian Appeal... 247

    Ma numesc Seifert Walter Florentin, sunt elev clasa XI-a la Liceul Teoretic Tudor Vladimirescu din Bucuresti, profil matematica-informatica. Pana in urma cu cateva luni eram un copil obisnuit, cu activitati obisnuite, cu idealuri si dorinte, cu ambitii si impliniri, un copil care se pregatea sa mearga pe calea vietii. Apoi s-a intamplat ceva... ceva cumplit care a distrus intr-o clipa micul meu univers, tot ce reprezentam eu. Simteam cum dintr-o data cerul nu mai era albastru, soarele nu mai voia sa rasara si pentru mine. Un dusman teribil s-a strecurat in viata mea si a naruit totul - cancerul. Cum reactionaza un om cand afla ca are cancer? Cum poate sa lupte cu asemenea amenintare? Raspunsul
