Häufiger Fehler:
Learners sometimes confuse "lucrative" with "luxurious". "Lucrative" means something that brings in a lot of money (a lucrative job, a lucrative contract), while "luxurious" means very comfortable or expensive (a luxurious hotel, a luxurious car). Another mistake is using it like a noun (*"He wants a lucrative"*). It is an adjective and must describe a noun, as in "He wants a lucrative career." Also, it is normally used for financial gain, not just any benefit, so *"a lucrative friendship"* sounds odd unless you literally mean it brings money.
