    Interesting pairs, and beautifully explained!
    A few more from here: differ-defer/difference-deference, seize-cease, wide-void...
    By the way, is it grammatically right to say second last?

    • @TheEnglishNut
      @TheEnglishNut  7 месяцев назад

      Yes, of course second last is correct.

    Similar to that of loath and loathe, the pairs of cloth and clothe can also be a right one, i guess

    Clothe-to dress

    Thank you so much our beloved English nut for sweeping away all the clouds of confusion and bringing the sunshine of clarity for us :)
    Here is my example entails the learning I have got from this video -
    We just don't need a council of sages shepherding us into this desert of English language when we have you counselling us. We just want this journey of learning English continuous and may your interesting videos continue to help us in this endeavor. Your way of teaching is incredible and flawless so much as it just makes it little incredulous at the same time. Your successive videos is the testimony of the fact that you are the paragon of success. We are not smearing you with the butter and jam of compliments but genuinely wanna confess that your channel just complements our English. A storm of curiosity is elicited at the notification of your video. At last thank you so much for the linguistic captial you have distributed among the poor learners like us.... ❤❤

    Another example: terrific and terrible. I saw two political leaders on the stage. One said that the other's work was "terrific". I started laughing because I thought it meant the same as terrible. It was later that I searched the meaning of terrific.
