Today I want to teach you teach you several words.
The first word is “lie”. “To lie” means to say something that is not true. The boy lied to his mother. He told her that he had not taken any cookies. The past tense of “lie” is “lied”. The politician lied to the television reporter. But “lie” can also mean “to be in a flat position on a surface” (like a bed or the ground). I usually lie on my side when I am in bed. The phone is lying on the table. The past tense of this “lie” is “lay”. The snow lay on the ground until April this year.
“Lay” is also a present tense verb in English. This “lay” means “to place”. For example, we lay clean plates on the table before we eat. He is laying your clothes on your bed. I laid your wallet on your chair last night.

Today I want to teach you three common phrases.
The first phrase is “head for”. This does not mean that you have four heads! :) To “head for” means to move towards something or someone. For example, “When Bill is hungry, he heads for the refrigerator.” We have other phrases with “head” like “head back”, which means “to return”, and “head out”, which means “to leave”.
The second phrase is “come to my attention”. When something comes to my attention, it means that I notice it. “I forgot to turn off the stove until the smell of smoke came to my attention!” “It came to the man’s attention that his air conditioner had stopped.”
