16 super-confusing words in English

from Espresso English Podcast

Do you ever use the wrong word in English? It's a very common problem - and it affects students at all levels, from beginner to intermediate to advanced. These mistakes are especially common when the two words appear very similar - like "interfere" and "intervene" or "relation" and "relationship" - or when they seem to have the same meaning, like "problem" and "trouble" or "staff" and "employees." Today I'm going to teach you the differences between all these super-confusing words I just mentioned, as well as a few more. I hope this lesson has helped clarify these super-confusing words! If you have any words that confuse you, let me know and I'll add them to my list for a future lesson. But you might find many of your questions answered inside my 600+ Confusing Words E-Book. You can see exactly what's covered in that e-book when you click on this list of all 600 words you'll learn.
