11 分钟Hi there this is Harry and welcome to Advanced English Lessons with Harry where we try to help you to get a better understanding of your English language.
So in this particular lesson we're going to look at vocabulary that we use to describe breathing.
So we're going to look at the difference between breath and breathe.
Like that's my breath, breathe, breathe in.
breath and breathe.
We've got 10 in total so I'll go through them one by one and then hopefully give you some examples that will explain properly what we mean.
Okay so when you breathe the B-R-E-A-T-H-E you breathe, breathe the fresh air.
You go along to the beach to breathe in the fresh air.
If you go outside and it's really really hot and sticky you can say there's not a breath of fresh air.
There's not a breath.
There's not any air or wind around.
So breath, B-R-E-A-T-H and breathe, B-R-E-A-T-H-E.
Okay, to breathe is a verb.
Breath is a noun.
Okay, a breath of fresh air, breath.
Okay, breathe, breath.
Now let me give you the vocabulary to describe breathing.
Inhale and exhale.
We'll take them together, one and two.
Inhale, exhale.
