Do & Make Explanation

Do & Make Explanation | Englisch Münster

There is no absolut rule for the usage of "Do" or "Make". However, these guidelines should help!

1. Do:

• Use "do" when referring to tasks, activities, or actions that don’t result in a physical object being created.

Examples:

• Tasks and Activities:
  • I need to do my homework.
  • She's doing the dishes right now.
  • He did a lot of research for his project.
• Daily Routines:
  • What time do you usually do your exercise?
  • They do yoga every morning.
• Jobs and Roles:
  • She does hairdressing.
  • He does carpentry as a hobby.

2. Make:

• Use "make" when something is created or constructed, resulting in a tangible object or something that is produced.

Examples:

• Creating Something:
  • She made a delicious cake for the party.
  • They made a plan to go hiking this weekend.
• Producing Objects:
  • He makes wooden furniture in his workshop.
  • She makes jewelry as a hobby.
• Causing Something to Happen:
  • The noise made him jump.
  • Her smile made everyone feel better.

Remember, there are exceptions and idiomatic expressions where "do" and "make" are used in specific phrases (e.g., "do the shopping," "make a decision"). Practice and exposure to context will help you become more comfortable with using "do" and "make" correctly in English.
