よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes use "girlfriend" for any female friend. In modern English, "girlfriend" usually means a romantic partner. Say "female friend" or just "friend" for a non-romantic friend. Learners also sometimes call a married woman’s partner her "girlfriend"; in that case, "wife" (or "spouse"/"partner") is more natural if they are married.
