Lesson 15: Make or Do? Oct 20th, 2005

On this show we talked about some of the differences between ‘do’ and ‘make’. Here are some points:

Point 1: ‘Do’ is usually used when talking about work.
e.g., I have to do my homework. I hate doing housework.

Point 2: ‘Make’ is usually used when talking about the idea of creating something.
e.g., make a cake, make the bed, he’s making a house’.

Point 3: ‘Do’ and ‘Make’ are easily confused, so please don’t worry about mistakes with them. If you’re not sure, use a dictionary and try to remember some collocations: make a mistake, make a noise, make love, peace, war. Do good, do a favor, do business.
