Sight, site, and cite all sound the same, but each word has a different meaning.
Sight is a view – something you can see. Sight also refers to the vision you have with your eyes.
That view of the Grand Canyon is a beautiful sight.
My sight was blocked by a large tree.
Site is a location.
Sometimes site refers to a piece of land where something will be built or located.
This is the building site for our new library.
Site can also refer to a website on the Internet.
I couldn’t find any good information on that site you recommended.
Cite is a verb. When you cite something, you quote the words as evidence or proof. We call that a citation.
Be sure to cite all your sources when writing a research paper.
I will cite the exact words he said in his book.
Remember that sight is spelled like light. You need light to have sight.
Site is almost like sit. A building sits on a site.
Cite is linked to citation – a quoting of someone’s words. In your mind, link citation to conversation.
