🚫 ⭕️ نیازی به کتب advanced نیست❗️

🔴خیلی از زبان آموزان بر این باورند که برای گرفتن نمرات بالا در بخش لغت یا گرامر نیاز به مطالعه کتاب های پیشرفته و لغات سطوح advanced دارند. در حالی که با یه بررسی اجمالی سمپل های اگزمینرها و band descriptors متوجه میشیم که ملاک نمره دهی در بخش لغات و گرامر سطح نیست بلکه رینج دقت، کاربرد و انعطاف پذیری اونهاست.

🔴 در نتیجه به همه توصیه میکنم حتی اگه به دنبال نمرات بالای هفت هستین هم نیازی به خوندن کتب سطوح بالا نیست و یادگیری تاپیک وکب و کالوکیشن های مرتبط اینترمدیت هم کارتون رو راه میندازه.

Miscellaneous Example

🗂Misuse of noun/ verb homonyms .

Don’t say : Becky played a good play of chess.
Say : Becky played a good game of chess.


⭐️ Some verbs and nouns do have the same from and analogous meaning in English:

⛳️The police fight a hard fight.
⛳️Heather dreams long vivid dreams .
⛳️If you lie the lie will catch you out.

However, we seldom use the same word like this. Usually we try to avoid it in some way;

⛳️ She fought a long battle with them.
⛳️ If you lie you will be caught out.

📖 What is the simple difference between British, Briton and English when referring to people

🇬🇧 British is an adjective for someone who lives in Britain, consisting of England, Scotland and Wales. Some people would also argue that Northern Ireland is included, although technically it isn't.

🇬🇧 Briton is a noun for a British person. The Britons, also known as Celtic Britons or Ancient Britons, were Celtic people who inhabited Great Britain from the British Iron Age into the Middle Ages. It is often abbreviated nowadays to Brit. British expatriates living abroad are often referred to as either expats or Brits.

🇬🇧 English is an adjective for someone who lives in England. If a person is English then they are also British.

🕯 Britisher is a noun for a native or inhabitant of Britain. It is mainly used in the Indian subcontinent, having become popular there during the British Raj. Its use was once considered pejorative, but is now mostly considered jocular.
