よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes use 'treasure' to mean any 'expensive thing', even when talking about a single object (e.g., saying *'This car is a treasure'* when they just mean it costs a lot). In stories and common use, this sense usually refers to a collection of valuable items like gold, jewels, or coins, not just one normal expensive object.
意味
valuable objects like gold and jewelry

よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes put 'very' between the verb and object, saying *'I treasure very our friendship'* instead of 'I treasure our friendship very much.' Another mistake is using 'treasure' only for expensive things; in this sense it is mostly emotional and is often used with people, memories, and experiences.
