I’m not talking about roulette.

I’m talking about MacMillan Dictionary’s Irregular Verb Wheel Game.

Is it really addictive? 

I don’t think so. 

But try it yourself.

All you need to do is to spin the wheel to test your knowledge of irregular verb forms.

Does it help?

You know there are differences between British and American English.

But how good are you?

Take MacMillan Dictionary’s two quizzes to test your understanding of some of the many differences in vocabulary between both Englishes.

Good luck!

And you’ve only got 3 minutes to spare?

Do you want to make the most of your travels?

Travel writer and TED Course instructor Pico Iyer suggests that we ask ourselves three questions:

1. “What moved me most over the course of my trip?”
2. “What surprised me most on my trip?”
3. “How might my trip move me to think or live my life a little differently?”

According to Iyer, “It’s only when you get back home that you can really begin to understand a trip and implement the changes it may have set into motion inside you”.
