Chalk Talk: Commonly Confused Words
Students often mix up commonly confused words. "Bimonthly" and "semimonthly" sound as if they have the same meaning, but "bimonthly" is the same thing as saying "every two months," and "semimonthly" refers to "twice a month." "Breathe" is the verb form of "breath," but the latter is often used incorrectly in place of the former. "Capital" refers to a city such as Harrisburg, PA, while "Capitol" (often capitalized) is the building in which a legislative body meets. "Connote" and "denote" are often confused; the former means to imply something, while the latter means to directly indicate something. One more: "Criteria" is often mistakenly used to indicate one standard by which someone is evaluated, but the singular form is actually "criterion."
