    Hear/Listen
    Message from kana posted on 28-06-2019 at 19:05:49 (D | E | F)
    hi! Hello,
    Can you help me please?

    I did an exercise in which the correct answers were:
    1-that's good to hear
    2- Have you heard of the accident in Elm road?

    1 - Why is it "hear" and not "listen"?
    2- why is it "heard of" and not "heard about"?

    Thanks for any reply

    Hello
    We use 'hear' when sounds come into our ears whether we want it or not.
    We use ' listen' when we pay attention to what we hear, that is we want to hear something.
    And about the second part of your question:
    Link

    I hope you can find your answer.
