Hello, everyone!!!
Do you wanna improve your listening? Check out this site

It´s simply great. You´ll have the chance to listen to classics of world literature in different accents.

Enjoy!

XOXO,

Are you a picky eater?

Well, these are not really perfect homonyms. You see, "peace" and "peas" are not pronounced exactly the same way. The former ends in a /s/ sound whereas the latter ends in a /z/ sound. On the other hand, "peace" and "piece" share the same pronunciation.

If you ask Martha, she'll tell you the people at Fiorenza are really trying to give peas a chance. No matter how she tries to tell them not to add them to our risotto, they always seem to find a way to give us some extra peas.

Give peas a rest!

Who would you take to a dessert island?

Homophones

Hom.o.phone n. 1. One of two or more words, such as night and knight, that are pronounced the same but differ in meaning, origin, and sometimes spelling.

 

This is just a small sample. There are many more.

Welcome to our first Grad 1 blog.

My dear Grad 1 students,

Welcome to our blog. I hope we all have some fun and improve our English here.

I'm still learning how to use these tools. Feel free to make suggestions.

I hope you keep coming back.

See ya.
