Download this free A2–B1 English worksheet PDF for English learners and teachers. This lesson is based on the Pacific island country internationally known as Nauru officially changing its name to the Republic of Naoero.
Students practise reading comprehension, useful vocabulary and speaking skills through a real-world topic about country names, local language, identity, business rebranding, restaurant names and personal name changes. The worksheet is suitable for private English lessons, online classes, classroom teaching, homework and self-study.
The article explains the topic in clear, simple English. Students read that Naoero is the traditional name used in the country’s national language, and that the older international name became common because foreign visitors found the local pronunciation difficult.
This worksheet helps lower-level learners discuss names, identity and rebranding in accessible English. Students talk about whether their own names are easy for people from other countries to pronounce, whether they use nicknames, what makes a good restaurant name, and whether a shop or company can improve its image by changing its name.
The PDF includes a short A2–B1 reading text, True / False questions, Synonym Match, a task where students use new vocabulary, discussion questions and a full answer key. It helps learners build useful vocabulary for talking about official names, traditional names, international codes, image, reputation, modern branding and personal identity.
