Честа грешка:
Learners sometimes confuse "cargo" with "luggage" or "baggage". "Cargo" is used for goods and products in commercial transport (ships, planes, trucks, etc.), while "luggage/baggage" is used for bags and suitcases that people carry when they travel. Also, "cargo" is usually an uncountable noun in this sense; you normally say "some cargo" or "a load of cargo", not "a cargo" except in very specific contexts.
