In this English lesson you’ll learn some of the most common words in English that have two different meanings. These words can be tricky for English learners because the same word can mean something completely different in another context. By the end of this lesson, you’ll be able to recognize both meanings and use them correctly in your own conversations. I'll also be giving some good example sentences and teach you how to pronounce them correctly.

In this English lesson you’ll learn words like: bat, bark, spring, date, seal, nail, watch, jam, wave, light, match, fair, letter, park, tie and many more. I’ll give you a picture and a simple definition for each word, along with clear example sentences so you can hear how native speakers use these words in everyday English.
