I'm sound from BBC Learning English, and today we're looking at five ways to use the word hard as an adjective describing a thing it can mean the opposite of soft, for example, would is hard the opposite of easy.

For example, the exam was hard.

Andi.

It could mean something that involves effort.

Running a marathon is hot, has an adverb describing an action.

It can mean to do something with energy, such as she works hard or to use force.

For example, he hit the ball hard.

Just be careful not to confuse it with hardly because that has a different meaning.

So not too hard, is it?
