Errore comune:
Learners sometimes think 'metric' only means the metric system of units. In modern business and technology, 'metrics' very often means performance measures, like sales numbers, response times, or error rates. Also, learners may say *'many metric'* instead of the correct plural *'many metrics'*. Use 'metric' for one measure and 'metrics' for several.
