  • In this video we look at two confusing words 'devise' vs. 'device'. Many English students find it difficult to use these two similar words because they have distinct uses. We explain how to use these words correctly using a funny story that provides lots of examples of 'device' and 'devise' in use.
    Jay asks his team to devise a plan that will help the company improve its sales performance. Annie suggests a new device to Tom and Tom persuades Jay to try it out on a customer. But is it really the device that Annie promises it to be?
    TMany thanks to our friends Annie and Marcelo for helping us create this funny story and their stellar acting performances. We hope to see more of them on screen!

    Devise and Device, two different words with similar spelling and pronunciation, but a completely different meaning!
    You devised this video for your viewers, which is available to see on an electronic device!
    Thanks for this video, which clarifies the difference! 😁

    Hello,
    Very nice video!
    I have a question about some verbs: babble, gabble, prattle, ramble, jabber and chatter - what's the difference between them? Maybe there's an idea for another video. :)
    Two more verbs are whine and rant.
    Thanks in advance!
