HEAR or LISTEN? - Quick Grammar Guide #shorts

Image
Hi folks, Charlie here. What is the difference between "hear" and "listen"? They're both to do with sounds coming into our ears, but we use them in slightly different ways. "Hear" means to notice the sounds with your ears. It's automatic. There's no effort involved. Here are a couple of examples: • I can hear the birds outside. • Can you hear me okay? • Suddenly I heard a noise. There was somebody else in the house. Now, on the other hand, "listen" means to pay attention to the sounds. You need to make an effort. It's not automatic. And we usually listen to something. For example: • I like to listen to music. • I listen very carefully to what she said and wrote it all down. • Can you please listen to me? I have something important to say. I hope that helps. Thanks for watching. See you next time. ❖ Support the channel HERE 👋🏽: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/organicenglish More from Organic English: Organic English...
