  • In this video, learn the difference between "bother" and "disturb" and learn when to use "bother" and when to use "disturb" in common questions and statements.
    Should you say:
    Sorry to bother you...
    or
    Sorry to disturb you...
    What's the difference between these two statements, and when should you use "bother" and "disturb".
    In this case, bother and disturb are interchangeable and have the same meaning.
    Disturb is more formal, and also sound a little more serious. But that's a subtle difference and you can use either one.
    However, there are some cases where you would ONLY use "bother" and ONLY use "disturb".
    We'll discuss those cases in the video as well.
    Watch the video now and learn the difference between "bother" and "disturb" so you can feel confident using both "bother" and "disturb" in your vocabulary.

    Your eyes' colour matches the lamp behind you. Beautiful! By the way, your video on request or recommend made me laugh when you said to your viewers, "Don't say to the server at a restaurant: what would you recommend me? Just say, what would you recommend?". The reason it was funny was the way you said it. Thanks

    Yesterday, at the office, my boss was watching one of his favorite english teaching course, by jforrest, on UA-cam channel. I noticed he had put a no disturbing sign on his door but I knocked on it, intentionally to bother him while he was watching the video course. He was not the only one who wanted to speak english in a fluent, confident and natural way. He was at his computer, with his back to the door. He turned around and looked at me standing at the door and said: I don't like it when you disturb me this way. Next time, make sure you read the sign on the door and don't bother me, again. Teacher, hope you like this history I just made up and understand it, too. Thanks a lot.

    Hi Jennifer,
    Don't disturb your brother , he has an important exam tomorrow.
    Being late for an appointment bothers me.

    In the morning, I want to get some more sleep, I put "Don't disturb " on the entrance door at the hotel.
    His cricket sound has been bothering me.

    I can't whistle either! When I was little I used to cry about it because all of my friends could whistle except for me and they liked making fun of me! I even thought that I had some problems in my throat and that was the reason I couldn't whistle :D

    What about this use of bother: I don't bother if there's a difference . Meaning care.
