Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes use "saver" instead of the verb "save", for example *"This app saver my time"* instead of "This app saves me time." They may also say *"very saver"* instead of using an adjective like "time-saving" or the structure "a big time saver." There is also confusion with "savior/saviour"; "saver" focuses on saving resources, while "savior" is a rescuer.
