They both mean the same thing, but we use them in different ways. <br /> <br />We use say with a noun or adverb. <br />"She always says the right thing." <br />"He didn’t say how he likes his food." <br /> <br />We use tell with a pronoun. <br />"She always tells me the right thing." <br />"He didn’t tell us how he likes his food." <br /> <br />http://speakenglish.today
