An open, public blog, providing at least a little English instruction for our listeners and students, not only here in Asia, but also globally. If volume is low on some videos, use earphones (sorry!). Thanks for your patience and flexibility! MP3 downloads are available at www.teacherbill.com. (** If you click on a video, and it says "This Video No Longer Available", try again. The videos are on youtube, but sometimes the connection doesn't work. Thanks!)

Dear teacher Bill,
Is Book Exhibitions the same with Book Fairs? Is it correct if I say "Books" Exhibitions?
Amy,
Book Fair and Book Exhibition have about the same meaning, although an Exhibition is usually larger. It would not be correct to say "Books" Exhibition. "Book" Exhibition is the correct term. Hope this is helpful, Amy!

Dear teacher Bill,
I got a little comfused. Why do some terms go like "exports values" or "imports units"? Should I say "export values" or "import units"?
Hi Amy,
Good question. It depends on the sentence structure--the terms can be either a verb/noun, or simply a two-worded noun. I'd have to see the examples that you have in mind.
Bill
