RE: [eatBug : Lunch] cookie and coffee
great lesson.
These lessons are difficult to learn from just English-self-studying.

What is the meaning of the idiom 'tell the differences' ?
Does it mean 'know the differences' ?
In my old English-Korean dictionary, I can't see it.
yes, it means to recognize the differences. The word 'tell' has that meaning, to be precise. Not just with 'differences'.
Maybe if you looked up the word 'tell' you might find it as a secondary meaning.
