Difference between word Sale & Sell (Wrongly Used on LRE),

(72020)

Hi all,

I've noticed on LRE website, people always use word 'SALE' wrongly (more than 80%).

Please see some explaination or difference between two:

Sale = noun (Things)
Sell = verb (Action Word)

Sale is a noun (thing). We are having a SALE.
Sell is a verb (action word). I think we are going to have to sell that old car.

Sale also means to market an item for the price of many to purchase an item through retail.

Sell- means to improvise a customer to buy the product on the shelf.

I hope this will help using right word at right time. :)

I am living in UK since 20 years and never heard English people to say

" I think we are going to have to sell that old car" but they will use below sentence:
" I think we are going to sell that old car"

Not an expert in English language but may be Mr. RedHat can explain better.

Dear RedHat Sir,

Even your spellings of Explaination are wrong.

Correct: Explanation

Mr. JJJ
Every where we say the same" I think we are going to sell that old car"

'going to have to' simply means they have no other options. They have to sell the car. It indicates 'majboory'
