Thank you for these tips. I’ve always gotten my IELTS students to use macmillandictionary as word patterns are very important for English. I just found out that this section on language tip of the week is really good. I’ll definitely get my students to read through all this. Keep writing. Cheers!
Please help me to get the meaning of following line from your article:
“Hoping that everything will go right is quite a risk to take with your oral health”
Hi Amir. I agree it’s quite a tricky sentence to untangle. It helps if you turn it round: “You are taking quite a risk with your oral health if you [just] hope that everything will go right [rather than visiting your dentist].” The meaning is that you should not take risks with the health of your teeth, but instead should get any problems checked out quickly.
Thank you Liz
I could imagine any other meaning but this one!
Wish you a very happy New Year
