The English language contains many words that are similar in both spelling and meaning but are used differently. Understanding the differences in these types of words will help you in both your reading and writing. In this lesson, we will compare the words ''breath'' and ''breathe.''
Breath vs. Breathe
Small spelling differences can make a big difference in your writing. Forgetting a letter, or adding one too many, can change the meaning, make your writing confusing, and undermine your credibility as a writer.

The difference between 'breath' and 'breathe' is a classic example. They only have one letter difference, and they mean similar things, but they actually have completely different jobs in a sentence. That is because they are different parts of speech, meaning they have different functions in a sentence. Using the wrong word will make your whole sentence grammatically incorrect and confusing to the reader.

Take a Breath In
'Breath' (rhymes with death) is a noun, and as you probably remember, a noun is a person place or thing. It describes the thing, the air, that comes into and goes out of your lungs when you breathe, which is what makes it a noun. The sentences below show the proper usage of the word breath:

tester [92]

Answer:

Agree to disagree is one of the common rules in discussion or debate. To say disagreement, one should express it politely; by establishing agreement first then stating the disagreement. Agree to disagree is not only expressed at the beginning of a discussion but also during the discussion.  

As a student who holds a discussion, giving an opinion and arguing a certain point has to be in “academic” language. It means that, although the tension of a discussion might be increased, and heated, it is always needed to express an argument politely, especially when it comes to stating disagreement. You should politely disagree. It can be done by acknowledging the opponent’s opinion first and then saying your reasons why you disagree. Stating agreement or disagreement also have to be followed by reasons and shreds of evidence.  

Here are examples of polite agree to disagree in a discussion by acknowledging the opponent’s ideas and stating the disagreement:

1. I see what you are getting at, but don’t you think that ……..

2. That’s a good point, but how about ………

3. I see what you mean, but …………..

4. I see what you mean, I’m not sure that’s right.

5. That’s a good point, but I’m not sure that’s right.
