Welcome to English with Nate. I am Nate.

In this video, I will provide definitions of the word AMBIGUOUS, example sentences so you can practice listening, and an opportunity to practice speaking.

Definition #1:
able to be understood in two or more ways

"The boy looks blue." Blue could refer to the color blue or mean that the boy is sad or depressed.

Example #1:
The man's directions were ambiguous. I had to ask someone else for directions to the hotel.

Definition #2:
unclear, uncertain, or doubtful because a choice or outcome has not been made

There can be ambiguous results, ambiguous elections, ambiguous weather forecasts, and/or ambiguous plans.

Example #2:
Because the election results were ambiguous, many people are calling for a recount.

Phonetic Spelling: am · bi · gyoo · uhs

In the comments section, write a sentence that includes the word AMBIGUOUS.

For a complete list of my definition videos, check out my YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChRN_kiAZSd6JxDoWrvw3tQ

I will be moving all of my videos over to 3Speak.

Dear @englishwithnate, we need your help!

The Hivebuzz proposal already got important support from the community. However, it lost its funding a few days ago and only needs a few more HP to get funded again.

May we ask you to support it so our team can continue its work this year?
You can do it on Peakd, ecency, Hive.blog or using HiveSigner.
https://peakd.com/me/proposals/199

Your support would be really helpful and you could make a difference.
Thank you!
