Častá chyba:
Learners often confuse 'malignant' with 'benign'. 'Malignant' means the tumor is dangerous and can spread, while 'benign' means it is not cancerous and usually not life-threatening. Another mistake is using 'malignant' before people in a medical context; in medicine, it typically describes tumors, cells, or diseases, not patients.
