Try and use these expressions in your essays as they will make your writings more expressive and interesting to read.

Did you know that our tongue is divided into four taste parts? You taste bitter at the back; sour at the back on the sides, salty at the front sides and sweet at the front. This and more can be found in our article, The Five Senses.
