peaceful and quiet (place)
calm and very quiet, with nothing noisy or busy happening
Vzorec užití:
a tranquil [place]
Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes use *tranquil* for loud or busy places just because they are pleasant (for example, a popular café). *Tranquil* always suggests quietness and little movement. Another mistake is to spell it like the related noun *tranquility* (with -ity) and write *tranquililty* or similar errors.
