Answer 2

Hey Mate ⭐⭐⭐

Here's ur answer ⤵⤵⤵

Hear is a verb that means to sense a sound with our ears.

When we hear something, it is by chance. This means we are not actively paying attention or waiting for the sound.

Examples:

I think I heard someone laughing in the apartment next door.

      - He wasn't expecting laughter, but the sound reached his ears.

You will hear native speakers use lots of contractions like "can't" or "didn't."

Listen is a verb that means to give your attention to a sound. When we listen, we are actively concentrating on the sound.

We can listen to a sound (a song, a speech) that is in progress. This is the most common way we use listen.

Or, we can listen for a sound that we are expecting. This means we are quietly waiting for the sound.

Examples

Please listen to the tour guide very carefully.

       - The speaker wants you to concentrate on what the guide says.

She likes to listen to the radio while she is at work.

       - She likes to turn on the radio and pay attention to the music while she works.

Hope it helps you! ヅ
