Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes use 'fervent' for physical temperature (e.g., 'fervent water') instead of emotional intensity. In modern English, 'fervent' is almost always about feelings, beliefs, or support. Learners may also overuse it in casual speech, where 'strong' or 'passionate' would sound more natural.
