اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes say *"an intoxication"* when they mean the general state, but it is almost always used without an article in this sense ("signs of intoxication", not *"signs of an intoxication"*). Another mistake is confusing "intoxication" with "addiction": intoxication is a temporary state of being under the influence, while addiction is a long-term dependence on a substance.
