Let’s learn individual!

It can be a noun, or an adjective.

As a noun, it means a person. We use the word individual because we want to compare a person to a group – or  the person is a bit different to everyone else.

Almost everyone passed – there is just one individual who let us down!

She’s quite an individual – she has her own style.

Individual used as an adjective  can mean distinctive or different.

Her style is very individual – she’s easy to recognise.

Your taste is very individual – I never know what you'll like.

Individual as an adjective can also describe things that relate to each person within a group.

We make sure that we deal with your individual needs.

Each student in the class has an individual tablet.

So, the word individual is all about things that relate to a single person – maybe they’re different, or maybe we just want to look at them differently. Whatever your interests as an individual, we can help you learn English.
