RE: The Deadpost Initiative! - Week 20 - Share your most undervalued work + week 19 winners ($12 STEEM prize pool)
Boom you have my vote! I am an English teacher teaching IELTS and one of the things that is always difficult to explain is exactly this! Because not in every language this occurs, so it is really hard to explain to students that yes....this is actually true. A word can have more than one meaning. heheh
Hi @karinxxl, you must be a master in your field. I'm sure some day I'd drink from your pool of knowledge. I'm a graduate of English and Literary Studies from Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU). I have been bathed in the river of Language by scholars like you.
Yes! It is quite difficult to understand words that have the same meaning as well as words that are similar in orthography and pronunciation. It is as simple as it is when one is open minded and understand the context of each word.
It's nice to meet you and best wishes 😊
Yeah nice to meet you as well! Definitely not a master in my field as yet, but learning every day. Doing a lot on Steemit in English also helps a lot, just using the language more :)
