טעות נפוצה:
Learners sometimes say *"I rehearsal my lines"* instead of using the verb *rehearse* ("I rehearse my lines") or the noun with a support verb ("I have a rehearsal"). Many also confuse *rehearsal* with *practice*: *rehearsal* is usually a planned, group practice for a show, while *practice* can be any training activity, alone or with others.
משמעות
practice of a show or performance
