Συχνό λάθος:
Learners often use only "peaceful" and do not know "peaceable". "Peaceful" is more common and often describes places or situations (a peaceful village), while "peaceable" is more often about people and their character (a peaceable man). Using "peaceful" for a person is possible but slightly less specific.
