Language in context
I have used a lot the word "Aural" and "Oral" indistinctively and I would like to know much more about its usage.
Can anybody help me to know the precise difference?
I have searched in the dictionary and it comes:
"Definition of aural: of or relating to the ear or to the sense of hearing"
"Oral: uttered by the mouth or in words: SPOKEN"
However, when I have written something about for school I use it either one. Am I right or wrong?
