This video covers its definition, synonyms, antonyms, and provides practical examples to help you use it correctly in your IELTS exam.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine you&#8217;re living with roommates, and one of them constantly plays loud music late at night. You politely ask them to keep it down, but they refuse to abide by the house rules.<\/p>\n<p>Frustrating, right? Today, we&#8217;re going to explore the word &#8220;abide&#8221; and how you can use it effectively in your IELTS exam.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Word type:<\/strong> Abide is primarily used as a verb.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Meaning:<\/strong> Abide has two main meanings. First, it means to accept or act in accordance with a rule, decision, or recommendation.<\/p>\n<p>Second, it can mean to tolerate or put up with someone or something.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Word history:<\/strong> The word abide comes from Old English and has roots in Germanic languages.<\/p>\n<p>It has been in use for over a thousand years, originally meaning to wait for or await.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Antonyms:<\/strong> Some antonyms for abide include reject, refuse, disobey, and defy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Synonyms:<\/strong> Synonyms for abide include comply, observe, follow, and adhere to when used in the context of rules.<\/p>\n<p>When meaning to tolerate, synonyms include endure, bear, and withstand.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Examples use in sentences:<\/strong> Let&#8217;s look at some examples of how to use abide in sentences.<\/p>\n<p>One: I find it difficult to abide by the strict dress code at work, but I understand its importance.<\/p>\n<p>Two: The new government promised to abide by the terms of the international treaty. Three: She couldn&#8217;t abide her neighbor&#8217;s constant gossiping and tried to avoid her.<\/p>\n<p>Four: As a teacher, I expect my students to abide by the classroom rules. Common errors in use: One common mistake is confusing abide with abide by.<\/p>\n<p>When talking about following rules or agreements, we use abide by, not just abide. For example, it&#8217;s correct to say I will abide by the decision, not I will abide the decision.<\/p>\n<p>Another error is using abide in casual conversation when it might sound overly formal. In everyday speech, it&#8217;s often more natural to use words like follow or stick to instead of abide.<\/p>\n<p>To wrap up, abide is a versatile word that can help you express ideas about following rules or tolerating situations.<\/p>\n<p>Remember to use abide by when talking about complying with rules or decisions. Practice using this word in your speaking and writing to become more comfortable with it.<\/p>\n<p>The more you use it, the more natural it will feel in your IELTS exam.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Understanding &#8216;Abide&#8217;: A Key Word for IELTS Success Learn the meaning, usage, and common mistakes associated with the word &#8216;abide&#8217;.
