  • Learn the difference between five pairs of English words that are often used at work and in business. Many of these words are also used in a general context. I’ll talk about the difference between advise/advice, infer/imply, beside/besides, hard/hardly, and later/latter. I’ll also give you some bonuses, and we’ll practice these all together, too. If you want my advice, you should also do the quiz on EngVid. Or is that ‘advise’? www.engvid.com/5-confusing-wo...

    INFER and IMPLY, so many people seem to think they mean they same thing. So they say "infer" sound smart. Kinda reminds me of "in lieu of". They think that means "in addition to".
    Oh but anyway, theres a quote from a TV show, I have no idea what though. Was a long time ago. Guy says to another guy, "Are you implying that I'm an idiot?" Other guy answers, "no, I'm inferring that you're an idiot". Hahaha that's always stuck with me and I still find it hilarious
