Jobs
In this lesson, you'll learn vocabulary related to jobs and discover the various suffixes we use to form words that indicate different professions.
First of all, pay attention at the expression "work as a". That is the way we say "trabajo de" in English. For instance:
"She works as a teacher."
"He works as an engineer."
English uses various suffixes to create words that refer to specific jobs. Understanding these suffixes can make it easier for you to learn these words. Some common job suffixes include:
"-er" (e.g., teacher, baker)
"-ist" (e.g., dentist, artist)
"-ian" (e.g., musician, politician)
Remember, having a strong vocabulary is essential for effective communication, in interviews, casual conversations, or writing CVs. Keep practicing, and you'll become more confident.
