Typisk fejl:
Learners often think "tavern" is a common everyday word like "bar" or "pub". In modern English, especially in speech, people usually say "bar" (US) or "pub" (UK). "Tavern" is more common in book titles, business names, or historical/fantasy stories. Learners also sometimes confuse the spelling and pronunciation with "cavern" (a large cave), which is unrelated.
