اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes confuse "suspense" with "suspicion". "Suspense" is a feeling of not knowing what will happen next, often with worry or excitement. "Suspicion" is when you believe someone may be guilty or doing something wrong. Also, "suspense" is uncountable in this sense, so you normally say "a lot of suspense" not "a suspense".
معنی
excited, anxious feeling about outcome

However, collocations like "suspense novel" and "suspense film" are used in publishing and marketing, so both patterns appear.
