Whole and Hole





Previous Page



Whole and Hole :




“Hole” and “whole” have almost opposite meanings.


A hole is a lack of something, like the hole in a doughnut (despite the confusing fact that the little nubbins of fried dough are called “doughnut holes”).


“Whole” means things like entire, complete, and healthy and is used in expressions like “the whole thing,” “whole milk,” “whole wheat,” and “with a whole heart.”
