Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes confuse "weariness" with "weakness." "Weariness" is about being tired, often after effort or lack of sleep, while "weakness" is about not having much strength or power, which may come from illness or a physical condition. Learners may also mix it up with the verb "wear," but "weariness" is a noun and does not mean to put on clothes.

Častá chyba:
Learners may think this kind of "weariness" always means physical tiredness. In this sense it is more about emotional tiredness and boredom with a situation, often used with "with" or "of" (e.g., "weariness with politics," "weariness of city life"). Using it without a clear situation (e.g., *"I have weariness"*) can sound unnatural; it is better to specify what you are weary of.
