As a preposition, you might say, Besides English, I can speak French and German.<\/p>\n<p>As an adverb, you could write, The restaurant was expensive; besides, the service was poor. Common errors in use: One common mistake is confusing besides with beside.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, beside means next to, while besides means in addition to.
