Author Charlotte Smith’s New Book, “Confusing Words, Including Heteronyms; Or Why English is Difficult to Learn,” Helps Readers Better Understand the English Language


Santa Fe, NM, March 20, 2023 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– Charlotte Smith, a retired teacher of high school mathematics and English, has completed her new book, “Confusing Words, Including Heteronyms; Or Why English is Difficult to Learn”: an educational book that was written especially for ESL students, and using English words that are similar to the same word in Spanish whenever possible.

Author Charlotte Smith was a K-12 librarian for many years. She has a BS in mathematics and an M.Ed. She is originally from Memphis, Tennessee, where she also taught math at the local community college. She has lived in Santa Fe, New Mexico, since 2005 and was also a Sylvan Learning Center tutor for ten years. Her previous books are “Homophones: Words That Sound Alike” and a children’s picture book entitled “Billy the Bully Goat Learns a Lesson.” Also, released at the same time as this book is “Homonyms; Multiple-Meaning Words: Or One Reason English is Difficult to Learn.”

Smith writes, “This book is about words that are confusing: some are homophones (that’s another entire book of mine), which are words that sound alike but are spelled differently and have different meanings, like sea and see. Most are words that are similar. Some I clarify regarding usage.”

Smith continues, “They say English is one of the hardest languages to learn, and here are some reasons why.”

Published by Covenant Books of Murrells Inlet, South Carolina, Charlotte Smith’s new book tries to educate the reader about a variety of subjects whenever possible.

The sentences are short and informal. “Confusing Words, Including Heteronyms” includes when to use “fewer” and “less,” “bring” and “take,” “may” and “can,” “lend” and “borrow,” and “farther” and “further,” to list a few. It also lists some common homophones—words that sound alike. Heteronyms are words that look alike but may be pronounced differently, like “present,” “record,” and “wound.”

Readers can purchase “Confusing Words, Including Heteronyms; Or Why English is Difficult to Learn” at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iTunes store, Amazon or Barnes and Noble.

Bishop Jephthah Sotabinda’s Newly Released “Divine Verses Volume 2” is a Compelling Collection of Spiritual Messages Offering Divine Insight and Guidance


New York, NY, October 20, 2025 –(CarryOnHarry.com)– “Divine Verses Volume 2: Verses of Truth and Wisdom”: a spiritually rich continuation of divine teachings. “Divine Verses Volume 2: Verses of Truth and Wisdom” is the creation of published author, Bishop Jephthah Sotabinda, a poet, songwriter, and naturopath, dedicated foremost to serving as a messenger of Jesus Christ. From his adolescent years, he explored literary arts through children’s books, poems, and songs, but following his divine calling, he has focused on recording messages from God in his writings, known as Divine Verses.

Bishop Jephthah shares, “The verse-styled publication of the messages of the Lord Jesus Christ continues with volume 2 of the Divine Verses. This volume 2 is a sequel to the first and previous publication of the Divine Verses. As the holy spirit of God continues to impart the messenger of the Lord Jesus Christ, Bishop Jephthah, with the needed godly knowledge, another publication of the Divine Verses has to be born.
Like the first and previous publication, this volume is also a thorough portrayal of pure divine truths and wisdom, as it brings absolute clarity on all kinds of truths, be it truths about life, love, or God. But the ultimate truth, which is the truth about God and his Son, Lord Jesus Christ, is the main foundation of the book because it is the highest truth in existence.
For the reason that the Lord Jesus is desirous to see that everyone attains salvation, he continues to pass on his messages of truth to his messenger so that those who pay heed to them can be saved.”

Published by Christian Faith Publishing, Bishop Jephthah Sotabinda’s new book inspires readers to deepen their understanding of God’s truth.

Consumers can purchase “Divine Verses Volume 2: Verses of Truth and Wisdom” at traditional brick & mortar bookstores, or online at Amazon.com, Apple iTunes store, or Barnes and Noble.
