It’s time for “Confusing Words of the Week” where I take a set of two or three words that get confused and give you definitions and try to give you a memory trick to help you remember when to use which word. If you have words that confuse you, use the Ask PTB tab on the website or send an email to [email protected] and they may appear here soon!
This week’s words are:
- Healthful – promoting health (e.g., a healthful food)
- Healthy – being in good health (e.g., a healthy person)
Memory tips:
- Healthful – Things that promote good health are full of health
- Healthy – Things alreadY in good health are healthy
