| heroin vs heroine |
These two words sound the same, so the real danger is when writing them. Heroin is a noun, it is a powerful illegal drug, obtained from morphine and is extremely addictive. For example: "He was arrested for supplying heroin, a class A drug." Heroine is a female person who is admired for having done something very brave or having achieved something great. The male equivalent is hero. For example: "Grace Darling is one of England's best known heroines." For Elfish |
