Честа грешка:
Learners often confuse thunder and lightning. Lightning is the bright flash of light in the sky, and thunder is the loud sound you hear after it. Another common mistake is to say a thunder for a single sound; in natural English we say a clap of thunder or a crash of thunder, not a thunder.
