The difference between SAY and TELL denberg 04/13/08
    I have a friend from Latvia who is learning English. She consistently makes one mistake: she says, "Say me about xyz" instead of, "Tell me..."

    "Say" and "Tell" have the same definitions in the dictionary, so how can I explain to her what the difference is? Any easy rules I can give her?

    Many thanks,

    Paul,
    London UK.
