Typisk fejl:
Learners often confuse the plural forms. "Fungus" is singular. The common plural in scientific English is "fungi" (pronounced /ˈfʌŋɡaɪ/ or /ˈfʌndʒaɪ/), but "funguses" is also used in everyday English. Learners may also use "fungus" when they only mean "mold" on walls or food; in many casual contexts, "mold" is the more natural word.

Typisk fejl:
Learners sometimes say "I have a fungus" without a body part, which can sound vague. It is more natural to say "I have a fungus on my foot" or to use "infection": "I have a fungal infection in my foot." Learners may also confuse "bacteria" and "fungus" and say "bacteria" for every kind of infection; however, some infections are specifically caused by fungi.
Betydning
