よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes say *"I am a watch of birds"* instead of *"I am a watcher of birds"*. Remember that *watch* is usually a verb or a thing you wear on your wrist, and *watcher* is the noun for a person. Learners also sometimes use *watcher* where *viewer* or *spectator* is more common, for example saying *"TV watcher"* instead of *"TV viewer"*; *watcher* is possible but sounds a bit less standard in these cases.
