Bought or brought? Getting ready for a games night
Bought describes getting something by paying for it. It is the past form of buy. Brought describes bringing someone or something to a place. It is the past form of bring. The same object can appear with either verb: you bought a game yesterday and brought it here today.
-
In or inside: choosing for a place
In positions an object or person within an area, container, city, or building. Inside points directly to the interior of an enclosed space, making the contrast with the outside environment clearer.
-
Active and passive voice: choose clear sentences
Voice describes the grammatical relationship between the subject and the verb. In an active sentence, the subject performs the action. In a passive sentence, the subject receives the action. Active sentences highlight who acts, while passive sentences highlight the person or item affected by that action.
-
Reflexive Pronouns: Rules and Examples
A reflexive pronoun shows that an action returns directly to the subject who performed it. Instead of passing to an external person or object, the action affects the doer. Reflexive pronouns also function as emphatic markers. In an emphatic role, the pronoun emphasizes that someone handled an action personally, distinguishing their direct involvement from delegation or outside assistance.
-
Relative pronouns: choose the right word
Relative pronouns introduce relative clauses that clarify or expand on a preceding noun. Words like who, which, that, whose, and whom tell your listener whether you are describing an individual, a thing, an owner, or someone receiving an action.

Spoken English exercises: everyday conversation practice
A conversation exercise focuses on a single turn within an everyday exchange rather than an entire memorized script. Each speaking turn accomplishes a specific job: opening with a question about an observable situation, answering while supplying one helpful detail, following up on your partner's words, holding the floor while you think, clarifying missed words, or closing with polite warmth. Mastering these individual communicative moves allows you to participate flexibly in real-world dialogue.

English class skills: What you learn
A language skill is something you can do with English to communicate. Reading and listening help you receive and understand messages from other people. Speaking and writing help you produce your own thoughts, answers, and requests. Grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation support these four skills so your messages remain clear.
-
Reasons to Learn English: Practical Personal Goals
A reason to learn English explains why the language matters in your daily life, such as talking to neighbors, understanding work manuals, or following international cooking instructions. A goal states an observable action you intend to complete within a clear timeframe.
-
Interrogative adjectives: ask clear questions
An interrogative adjective stands directly before a noun to ask for specific information about that person, place, or thing. Descriptive words tell you about size, color, or condition. By contrast, what, which, and whose do not describe appearance. They specify the scope of your inquiry. These words are also called interrogative determiners because they signal that a question follows and point the listener toward the exact noun being questioned.

English Nouns: Rules for Everyday Use
A noun is a word that identifies a person, place, animal, thing, or idea. Nouns can name the person who acts, the object that someone carries, or a location. They can be singular for one item, plural for several items, or uncountable for substances and concepts that do not take numbers directly.
-
Till or Until: Choose the Right Word
Till and until mean 'up to a particular time or event'. An activity or situation continues up to that point, but this does not mean every action happens without a break. In negative sentences, not until shows that something does not happen before the stated point.
-
Proper Adjectives: Rules and Examples
A noun names a person, place, or thing. A proper noun names a specific person, place, or entity, such as Japan or Queen Victoria. When you adapt that specific name to describe another noun, you create a proper adjective. For example, Japan becomes Japanese in the phrase Japanese tea. The adjective indicates the origin, cultural style, or historical context of the item, yet the noun itself remains the central object.
-
abstract nouns: everyday rules and examples
An abstract noun names a feeling, quality, idea, state, or event rather than a physical object you can see or touch. Common examples include happiness, honesty, advice, and childhood. Instead of relying solely on whether something can be touched, look at how the word functions in its sentence to distinguish concrete items from abstract concepts.
-
Write a Formal Letter: Clear Rules and Examples
In everyday English, formal means appropriate for an official or professional situation. A formal letter uses clear layout, polite phrasing, and complete sentences. It does not require unusual vocabulary or complicated grammar. It simply helps an unfamiliar reader understand your situation and take action without confusion.
-
Full stops: when to use them
A full stop marks the completion of an informative statement or an ordinary instruction. It tells the reader that one complete thought has finished so they can understand each action before moving to the next sentence.
-
Your or Yours: How to Choose
Your is a possessive determiner. It introduces a noun phrase and shows who connects to the thing being named. Yours is a possessive pronoun. It takes the place of both your and the noun together. Possession in English extends beyond physical ownership to include relationships, scheduled turns, and personal responsibilities. For related pronoun work, review /micro-listenings/11-2/ and /micro-listenings/4-2/.

N.B. in email: meaning and clear use
N.B. stands for the Latin words nota bene, which mean note well. In English correspondence, writers place it before an extra detail that requires attention. It does not replace the main message, but it highlights a condition, reminder, or helpful update that belongs with that message.
