Συχνό λάθος:
Learners sometimes confuse "murderous" with the verb "to murder" and try to use it as a verb (e.g. *"He murderous her"*). Remember that "murderous" is an adjective and must describe a noun ("a murderous attack", "his murderous thoughts"). Learners also sometimes use it too lightly (e.g. *"a murderous joke"*) where a weaker word like "mean" or "cruel" would be more natural in normal conversation.

Συχνό λάθος:
Learners may think "murderous" always means something about killing. In this sense, it is exaggerated language for something extremely hard or severe ("murderous heat", "murderous schedule") and does not literally involve killing. Also, learners sometimes overuse it in casual speech where milder words like "hard" or "tough" would be more natural.
Σημασία
extremely hard, exhausting, or harsh

|murderous schedule
|murderous pace
|murderous heat

Αντώνυμα
manageable (Suggests something is not too hard and can be handled, the opposite of a murderous workload or schedule.)
