Gyakori hiba:
Learners often confuse "villein" with "villain" because the words look and sound similar. "Villein" is a historical term for an unfree peasant in the Middle Ages, while "villain" means a bad or evil person, especially in stories or films. Do not use "villein" when you mean "bad person"; use "villain" instead.
