Practice has a lot of different meanings that you can use in many situations.

Remember, this is practice with a C, not an S because it's a noun.

One. Practice can be the reality of actually doing something, not just the idea or theory of it.

It sounded like a good plan but in practice, it was terrible.

Two. It can be used to describe a custom or tradition, like typical traditions in a country.

In the UK, it's common practice to tip taxi drivers and hairdressers.

Three. We use it to describe an activity that we do regularly.

I enjoy football practice because I love football and I see my friends.

I hope you enjoyed this English practice.
