Weather & Whether are the Same Words????

The following poem will make you understand the meaning of both whether and weather Whether the weather be fine, Whether the weather be hot, Whether the weather be cold, Whatever the weather, we will weather the weather, Whether we like it or not.

Hello Tushavi! The English language can be pretty confusing at times. Weather: Means like the season or climate. Whether: This or that, if, or. Good on you for asking MyLotters for help. :) Happy MyLotting. ~AussieGal~

Though the words weather and whether sound exactly the same when you say them out loud, they are in fact two very different words. The word weather has to do with the temperature and what is going to happen with the sky (for example sun, rain or snow). The word whether is a word that is used when facing a decision. For example "You are going to make money, whether or not you are a member of mylot."

Absolutely not. For one thing, they are different parts of speech. Weather is a noun and whether is a preposition.

oh yeah they are totally different, weather is to do with daily atmospheric condition of a place a particular time while whether is when wandering if something will happen or not.

They are different words in their meanings but we pronounce them same depending on the situation we use the word "whether" means expressing a doubt or some choice we use this word. "weather" which means climate, sometimes we see in papers weather conditions means the climate conditions on that particular area.

These two words have the same pronunciation but the meanings are quite different. Weather is the situation of the sky, such as sunny, rainy, snowy etc. Whereas "whether" has a meaning like "if". I hope this will be helpful for you.

It doesn't look like you need my definition of weather and whether.

These two almost sound the same, but they are two very different words. "Weather" has to do with the conditions outside - raining, snowing, wind, and temperature are all features of the weather. You might say, "How's the weather?" And I might answer,"It's very cold here bring your coat." "Whether" is a totally different word. In a sentence it may be use like this, "I do not know whether or not I am going to the mall."

They sound the same. But they are not the same. Weather refers to rain, snow, sunshine, cold, hot, climate. Whether is used is an "either or". For example "I hate politics whether my politicians wins or not".

Definitely these two words differs in meaning: Weather is the climactic condition of a certain place or region while: Whether is a conjunction most of the time used in indirect questions that introduces an alternative.

no they are not, they are not the same with spelling and meaning. weather defines as a change of the state of the atmosphere like cold and hot, wet or dry, calm or stormy. its a state of our environment and climate while whether is a word used to introduced the first of two or more alternatives. example for this word is : we should found out whether the museum is open.

Pronunciation for both the words weather and whether are same but both have different meanings. Weather is used when one is speaking about the climate or temperature of a place, city, country etc. Whether is used to express doubt.

Hi Tushavi, it is okay. I am sure there are many mylotters here would offer you good explanation and help if you need. Although you are not a native English, but you can learn to read and write English here at myLot as one of the option. Regarding the answer to your question, weather and whether is a different word. Both bears different meaning. 1) Weather refers to the atmosphere at a given time and place, whereby it has variables such as temperature, moisture, wind velocity, and barometric pressure. Example of weather can be; raining, stormy, sunshine, cloudy, snowing... 2) As for the word "whether", it simply means a word used to introduce an alternative. I found some examples, "See whether or not she comes to school". "I doubt whether we can do any better". Hope the above helps you a little. All the best!

Hi Tushavi, Both are different words. Whether - used to introduce an indirect question. For example, I wonder whether it is worth the effort. Weather – means climate

They are generally said the same, tho some people put a "wh" in that word. "Weather" is what is going on outside - is it sunny or rainy. "Whether" is when there is a choice of things - this thing or that thing. "Whether or not I go depends on the weather."

Weather = climatic conditions Whether = if, willing or not

As I'm sure you know by now, they have seperate meanins. One means the weather, as in rain or snow etc. and whether is kind of like "or else".

No, they aren't. Weather is about the temperature, if it rains, snows, if it is hot and cold etc. Whether is a linkinf word, has a relatively similar meaning to if. But not in the way that it would be good if you wrote "If I drink coffee, I'm gonna stay awake", but in a way "I don't know whether it is okay"... I can't explain it better, as I'm not a native.

No both are different words with different meanings. They are very confusing we pronounce them same & spellings are also similar but are used in different conditions. Weather- Climate, atmospheric conditions etc For example : "How is the weather?" or "I'm enjoying the weather." Whether- It is similar to 'if' used in the sentences where there is doubt. For example : "I'm going to party, whether you like it or not" or "I want to know whether the show is still going on."
