Модел на употреба:

Честа грешка:
Learners often confuse "industrious" with "industrial". "Industrious" describes people (or sometimes animals or groups) who work hard: "an industrious student". "Industrial" relates to industry, factories, or manufacturing: "an industrial area", "industrial production". Another mistake is overusing "industrious" in casual speech where "hardworking" sounds more natural.
Синоними

|
