'To Do' vs. 'To Make'

Navigating the complexities of business English can be a daunting task, especially for non-native speakers striving to make their mark in the professional world.

 

One common area of confusion lies in the appropriate use of two simple, yet pivotal verbs: "to do" and "to make."

Here's a glimpse into what you'll uncover when you tune in.
