This section of our course will
review 100 words groups that are troublesome to
many CPE students. Words have been grouped
according to the way they are most often confused or
misused. Some of these words are homonyms (words
that sound alike but are spelled differently) and
some are just commonly confused. Each set of
confusables (eg: their, there, they're) are
displayed together. |
