よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes use 'tribe' for any national or cultural group, which can sound old-fashioned or offensive in modern English. For many communities, it is better to say 'people', 'community', 'nation', or the specific group name (for example, 'the Māori people' instead of 'the Māori tribe') unless 'tribe' is their own preferred term. Learners also confuse 'tribe' (the group) with 'tribal' (the adjective, as in 'tribal leaders', 'tribal land').
