Kesalahan umum:
Learners sometimes confuse "leisurely" with "lazy". "Leisurely" means slow and relaxed, often pleasant and positive, while "lazy" is usually negative and means not wanting to work. Another mistake is using "leisurely" to mean "free" or "available" (as in "I am leisurely now"); in that case, English uses "I am free" or "I have some free time" instead.

Kesalahan umum:
Learners sometimes say "in leisure" or "with leisure" instead of "leisurely" or "in a leisurely way". Use "We ate leisurely" or "We ate in a leisurely way", not *"We ate in leisure." Also, avoid using "leisurely" before a noun when you mean the adverb: say "We took a leisurely walk" (adjective) or "We walked leisurely" (adverb), not *"We leisurely walk" in very formal writing, although that form can appear in some styles.
