When do I use the correct word in a sentence?

Let’s start with the definitions of each term.  The meaning according to Merriam Webster,

• advice – (noun) recommendation regarding a decision or course of conduct
• advise – (verb) to give advice to; to give information or notice to

A common mistake is using ‘advise’ as a noun, while ‘advice’ is used as a verb.  The use of these words is not interchangeable.

WRONG: I need your advise.

CORRECT: I need your advice.

WRONG: Please advice me.

CORRECT: Please advise me.

The common grammatical mistake made by most people is writing ‘every day’ as one word. There is a difference between ‘every day’ and ‘everyday.’ It is easy to confuse one for the other when writing a sentence and mind you this is not interchangeable.

Every day simply means ‘each day.’ In this phrase every is used to describe day. On the other hand, everyday is an adjective that means casual, routine or ordinary. The following are examples on how to use these words in a sentence.

John goes to office every day except Sunday.
John’s everyday breakfast is ham sandwich and coffee.

The question is something that we encounter quite often whether it be in reading articles or writing one.  Every day we take the bus to the office or drive the kids to school, and then it occurs to you, “… so am I on the bus or in the bus? Am I on the car or in the car?”

When to use “in” or “on” might not matter to most of us, but knowing how to use it in a sentence is a plus.

So is it farther or further?  If you’re confused over which word to use then you’re not alone.  Just the one-letter difference between the two words definitely adds to the confusion.  Plus both words refer to distance in some sort of way.

Experts say that the word ‘farther’ is used when you are referring to physical or actual distance.  Farther also has the word ‘far’ in it which obviously is being used to refer to physical distance.

e.g., This bus stop is farther from my house than yours.

The word  ‘further’ on the other hand should be used when referring to abstract or figurative distances.

If you are planning to monetize your website, there are three factors to consider.  They are traffic, traffic and traffic.  Why do you think it is important?  Traffic translates to visitors, and visitors are potential customers.  Assuming that your visitors remain fairly consistent and if you have that much traffic flowing to your site, your chances of making money goes up.

Traffic is the soul of your online business.  If you have lots of visitors to your website, your potential to have more ad clicks, more affiliate sales, more product sales, more people subscribing to your feeds and more people knowing your site (build a nice reputation) is already high.  And then there’s the tendency to make possible consulting leads, more donations and more advantages will come your way.
