اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes confuse "affliction" with "infection" or "addiction." An affliction is any serious problem that makes you suffer, not only from germs (infection) and not about being dependent on something like drugs or games (addiction). It is also more formal than everyday words like "problem" or "sickness" and is usually used for serious, not minor, issues.
معنی
