This 'am' started like a joke. See where we are today. The newest and most disgusting is adding 'S' to uncountable noun.

#20 is not totally correct.


Both meter and metre are correct as metric unit. One is just American spelling and the other British.

That Advice and Advise is still confusing lol. I'll probably misuse them for the rest of my life.

Walai!! I write anyhow my head tells me..I'll advice/advise you to do that also..

That Advice and Advise is still confusing lol. I'll probably misuse them for the rest of my life.

Just remember that the one that ends with 'se' is the verb while the one that ends with 'ce' is the noun.

For example:
I. I'd advise/advice you to take your studies
serious.
2. My dad gave me a piece of advise/advice.

In the first example, the part of speech that belongs there is a verb, so the right word is 'advise'. Whereas in the second example, what belongs there is a noun, hence the right word is 'advice'.

What about center and centre

Very correct. The one that ends with 're' is British while the one that ends with 'er' is American.

Loose and lose

Been and being

Choose and chose

Same rule of British and American versions. Centre is to British as Center is to American.

I advise you to heed the OPs advice since you might also advise someone sometimes in life to heed the same advice.... Sirrrrr!

Sorry. In the first example, the word should be advise, because in that context it is acting as an action word, which is a verb.

This very helpful,good job

stop using severally. It is incorrect. Simply use several. I don't know why Nigerians use that word. Severally means separately

Better refer to your lexicon.

Very nice piece but a transcription would have made it perfect and helpful to remember.
Advice - advais (noun)
Advise - advaiz(verb )

Many thanks for sharing

For me, it's "been" and "being". All of a sudden (unlike before) I just started to mix them up. Interestingly, I understand it but I have to choose them carefully

Seriously u are not d only one in dis poo brother.. I sent a msg to a friend of mine not too long ago for dis been n being.. It not funny.

The way to get been and being correctly is to observe the verb before it. For example, been always comes after modals like has, have and had. Examples: I have been waiting. They have been approved by the government.

Every other verb goes with being e.g he is being considered for the job. They are being trained on the equipment use.
I hope this clarifies it a bit

Think of the word "advisement" - verb to adverb, you'll never get them mixed up as adverbs are derived from verbs.
