1. Sting & Bite
We use the verb “to sting” to talk about attacks from bees, wasps and scorpions, who use a sting at the end of their tails. For example, “The wasp stung me.” For animals such as ants, dogs and mosquitoes we use the verb “to bite”. For example, “The cat bit me while I was playing with it.”
2. Storey & Floor
We use the word “storey” to refer to the height of a building.
For example:
“He works in a 20-storey building.”
If you want to indicate what level of the building you work on, you can use the word “floor”. For example:
“She works on the 16th floor.”
3. Sometime & Sometimes
Basically, “sometime” can be translated as “at some point” or “at some moment”. For example: “I’ll do it sometime this week.” “Sometimes” is an adverb of frequency. For example: “She sometimes goes to the cinema.”
