Description





           
  • "Beside" and "besides" look and sound similar but have different meanings and uses in English. 

  • "Beside" is mainly a preposition used to indicate location, typically meaning "next to" or "at the side of" something. 

  • "Besides" can be a preposition or an adverb, and it means "in addition to," "apart from," "except," or "moreover."

  • These words are not interchangeable; using one in place of the other can change the meaning of a sentence entirely.
