So, today’s phrase is: to lose weight.
That’s what the majority of people wish for at the start of the year. Losing weight and looking fit.
So today, we’re talking about the word: ‘weight.’
This is a word that’s written using six letters of the English alphabet but pronounced with four phonetic sounds. ‘ Weight’ or /weit/
It also sounds like that other word: ‘ Wait’ – To wait for someone.
This is normal – two different words, pronounced the same.
Same, same but different.
Don’t be surprised. It’s very normal. Welcome to the English language amigos y amigas!
