Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes confuse "chilly" with "chili" (the spicy food or pepper), which are different words with different spellings. They may also use "chilly" for extremely low, freezing temperatures; in those cases, words like "freezing" or "icy" are more natural. Another confusion is between "chilly" and "chill"; "chilly" is mainly an adjective for temperature, while "chill" is more often a noun or verb.
