See "sit" versus "seat"

Wednesday, April 6, 2016

 See "sit" and "seat". I have observed that we often use them interchangeably. CAUTION: The word "sit" is a verb while "seat" is a noun. i.e. You sit on a seat. Note the following: You don't seat on a sit. You don't seat on a seat". You don't sit on a sit. May I repeat: You sit on a seat. NB: Anyway, there is a verb form of "seat" meaning "to show a seat or assign a seat for". e.g. The ushers seated me close to the celebrant. Avoid committing a common blunder, please.
