🤔 How to...use "stationary" and "stationery"?
Although these words look similar and sound the same, they are two different things. Stationary means not moving or immobile. As in a stationary bike in the parking lot.
On the other hand, stationery are things that you use for writing, such as pens and paper. As in a stationery set from a bookstore.
So, next time, do not be confused when reading and/or writing these words.
