Emigrate vs immigrate
I am having a hard time to understand the meaning and usage of them.All I came to know that "emigrate" means is to take exit from your country to live in another, and "immigrate" means to live permanently in other country.
But it's still blurry to me
But it's still blurry to me
I emigrated from India to immigrate in London.
For example if you come to India to live permanently you're an immigrant here and emigrant in your former country.
I might be wrong so please explain.
