providing useful or interesting information
Giving people useful or new information about something.
Padrão de uso:
[someone/something] is informative
Erro comum:
Learners sometimes confuse "informative" with "information" and say things like *"an information video"* instead of *"an informative video"*. Use "informative" to describe something that gives information, and "information" as a noun. Learners may also use "informative" when they mean "informed" (e.g. *"I am informative about this topic"*). In this case, the correct adjective is "informed" ("I am informed about this topic").
