is the difference between abroad and overseas. Okay. Let's take a look at the

note here. When looking at definitions or when looking at definitions alone. Both

words appear to have the same meaning. So that's why this comes up a lot that

students may ask what's the difference between the two. Okay. Let's continue . They

both can mean in or to a foreign country. So you can mean that something is

happening in that country or while traveling or going to the foreign

country. So then they both can have that meaning too. So here is where they both...

the similarities are almost exactly the same. Okay. Let's continue. Both words can

also be used as adverbs and adjectives. Okay. All right. Now all right now here is

where we're going to finally get into the differences. However overseas does

imply, it does suggest. It does imply crossing an ocean. So if two or more are...

So if two or more countries are attached and can be crossed on land , you

should really be using abroad and not overseas. So let's take a look at this

first example here. You know , again with the X this would be wrong. So if you're

saying I am traveling overseas to Mexico next week and you're coming from the US,

then this would be wrong. You should be saying I am traveling abroad to Mexico

next week. Yeah. The same thing would be of course like in Europe, let's say you were

in France and you were going to Spain you should be saying that you're

traveling abroad to Spain not that you're, you're not traveling overseas,

because you don't have to cross any oceans. You can just go directly by

either train or drive by road, whatever. So you should not be using overseas in

that sense. All right good. Let's continue. Here's, here's another key difference

though. When used as adjectives abroad is always used after the word it

describes and overseas is always used before the noun. So that's a good thing

to note. So let's just take a look at one example here. We are trying to break into

overseas markets. Okay. So you know, to break into , this is like a company maybe

they want to you know, start selling in that new market. You know maybe they want

to get into the Japanese market. They're trying to break into it. So they can get

some share of the market. So we are trying to break into overseas market. So

just in general. So here of course it's overseas you use it before the noun that

you're modifying . And of course if you reverse the sentence to use abroad you

would say we are trying to break into markets abroad. So abroad of course would

be used after the noun. Okay. Anyway those are the two main key differences. Anyway

I hope you got it. I hope it's clear. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
