Why Word Choice Matters in Grammar?

Word choice is an important part of effective communication. For Grade 7 learners, understanding the difference between commonly confused words improves both writing and speaking confidence. This topic is essential because:
1. Correct word choice improves sentence meaning and clarity.
2. Homophones and similar-looking words are common sources of mistakes.
3. Accurate vocabulary supports stronger reading and writing skills.
4. Context helps students select the most suitable word naturally.
5. Better word awareness improves grammar, comprehension, and communication.

Exercise 3 – True or False
