listen and hear

Do you know the difference between the verbs TO LISTEN and TO HEAR

TO LISTEN is active. TO HEAR is passive

Sometimes you can LISTEN too hard. Sometimes you can TRY too hard. Sometimes it is better only to HEAR

If you have a listening exercise or a listening activity for learning English

Let the radio play. Let the cassette play. But DON’T listen. Just HEAR

Your subconscious will listen for you. And you will still learn. If you listen and try to understand, you may block on one

word and get frustrated. Don’t worry! Just HEAR! Believe me, you will still be learning. The important thing is to let the

radio or cassette or television or record PLAY. Let it play. And you – you do nothing. Your brain will HEAR, your

subconscious will LISTEN and you will LEARN
