What is the difference between "I play the whole day" and "I play the entire day"? What should we use?

Maybe entire is used for a long period such as year or decade ?

how to distinguish bitch and beach while saying?

Hard to explain. The vowel sounds are longer in "beach", where as "bitch" is quite a short and snappy word. I've tried to spell them onomatopoeically the best I can, but I guess it might be hard to learn from this due to the difference in how letters are pronounced in different languages, but whatever:

Bitch = Bitch
Beach = Beeeeeeeeeech

in latvian letters it will be like

Bitch = Bitch = Bič
Beach = Biiiiiiiiiich = Bīč

when saying beach try to put your tongue closer to the top and front of your mouth, as close as possible without making it touch otherwise you'll just make a consonant, i think polish and latvian already have this so it should be easy. for bitch, put your tongue slightly lower and further back in your mouth. polish and latvian don't have this sound so don't try to use any vowel sound you already know, it won't work.
