Errore comune:
Learners sometimes confuse "transfusion" with "transmission" or "transformation" because they look similar. "Transfusion" is specifically about giving blood (or similar fluids) to a patient. Also, some learners try to use "transfusion" as a verb (e.g., *to transfusion someone*); the correct verb phrase is "to give someone a transfusion" or "to transfuse blood into someone" (more technical).

Errore comune:
Learners may overuse this figurative meaning in everyday speech where simpler words like "boost" or "help" are more natural. It is also a mistake to use "transfusion" as a verb in this sense (*to transfusion the company with cash*); instead say "to give the company a transfusion of cash" or more simply "to inject cash into the company".

Sinonimi
injection (Common metaphor in similar contexts (e.g., "an injection of cash"); slightly more frequent and flexible than "transfusion" in figurative use.)
|
boost (More general and informal; stresses helping or improving rather than the idea of adding something new from outside.)
Contrari
