Hey everyone!

I have an English word tip for you today! The

word is “babe” this is used to describe someone who is either “hot” or attractive and also used between two people in a relationship similar to using the word honey or sweetheart . In my opinion the word babe is becoming less and less commonly used - I would caution typically you wouldn’t use the word babe to describe someone if that person is present- as they may find it offensive if you aren’t in a relationship.

Please post a like or comment below if you found this helpful! Thanks guys!

    @Marie sweetly would be used as an affectionate alternative for the name of your significant other

    @Alison that would be very unusual unless the pet itself was named “babe”
