자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes confuse “wool” with “fur” or “hair.” Use “wool” for the material from sheep that is used for clothes and blankets, and “fur” for the soft hair on some animals that is not usually spun into yarn. Another common mistake is saying *“a wool”* for material; use “wool” as an uncountable noun (e.g., “made of wool,” not “made of a wool”).
