798 - Ache vs Pain

I visited my 97-year-old aunt in the nursing home the other day.  I haven't seen her in a while and it was a bit of a pain in the neck to get there but it was totally worth it. She said that aside from a few aches and pains she's doing pretty good.  Aches and pains  -  those are two words that tend to be a royal pain for a lot of English learners. 

Ache and pain are two words that can make your brain hurt when you try to remember how to use them, so for today’s English lesson, let’s check out how we use these two words.
