Bedroom

This lesson introduces common bedroom words and how to use them in everyday and professional contexts. You'll learn item names, collocations, and short phrases useful for describing hotel rooms, reporting maintenance issues, and arranging a workspace at home.

• Focus on common items: bed, mattress, pillow, sheets, wardrobe, nightstand, lamp.
• Practice collocations: make the bed, change the sheets, hang the curtains.
• Use vocabulary in professional contexts: hotel descriptions, office-from-home setups, property reports.

Focus on collocations, countability, and position words so you can describe rooms clearly.

• Learn collocations: make the bed, change the sheets, set the alarm clock.
• Note countable vs uncountable: 'sheet' is countable (a sheet), 'linen' is uncountable.
• Practice prepositions: on the bed, under the bed, next to the nightstand.

Use pictures or a real room to label items and practice speaking descriptions.

Watch out for these universal errors when learning bedroom vocabulary.

• Mixing countable and uncountable nouns (e.g., 'furnitures' is incorrect; 'furniture' is uncountable).
• Using the wrong preposition (e.g., say 'on the bed' not 'in the bed' when the object is above the mattress).
• Confusing similar items: blanket, duvet, and comforter have different usages and regional names.
• Incorrect article use: 'the bed' vs 'a bed' — choose definite or indefinite based on context.

When in doubt, check a reliable dictionary and pay attention to example sentences.
