Area refers to a space or region, often measured in size, and think of it in terms of geography or mathematics.
Aria is a piece of music for a solo voice, so associate it with music, opera, or singing.
Remember that area has an e like earth, which helps you remember regions or spaces.
Aria sounds like air, which can remind you of a musical performance where notes float through the air.
The term area is common in everyday discussions about size and space, while aria is often used in specific musical contexts.
