Error frecuente:
Learners sometimes say *"a nausea"* or *"many nauseas"*. In normal use, *nausea* is uncountable, so you should say *"I feel nausea"* or, more commonly, *"I feel nauseous"* (adjective). Learners also mix up *nausea* (feeling like you might vomit) with *dizziness* (feeling the room is spinning).
