اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes confuse "patriotic" with "nationalist". "Nationalist" can sound more political or extreme, while "patriotic" usually just means loving and supporting your country. Also, do not say *"He has a patriotic"* (you need a noun: "He has a patriotic spirit" or "He is patriotic").
