portable box for tools

A box that you use to keep and carry tools.

תבנית שימוש: a toolbox full of [tools]
טעות נפוצה:
Learners sometimes confuse "toolbox" with "tool" and say things like *"I need a toolbox to fix this screw"* when they mean a single tool such as a screwdriver. Use "toolbox" only for the container that holds many tools.

collection of skills or methods

All the skills and ways of doing things that a person can use to solve problems.

תבנית שימוש: a toolbox of [skills/methods/strategies]
טעות נפוצה:
Learners may not recognize that "toolbox" is often used metaphorically for skills or methods and may translate it too literally. In phrases like "a toolbox of strategies," it does not mean a real box but a collection of ways to act.
מילים נרדפות
skill set (More formal and neutral; focuses on skills only, not methods or tools in a broad sense.) | arsenal (More metaphorical and sometimes more aggressive in tone, often used for powerful methods or arguments.)
הפכים
skill gap (Emphasizes missing or lacking needed skills, the opposite of having a rich toolbox of skills.)
