자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes confuse "platelet" with "tablet" (a small pill) or "plate" (a dish for food). Another mistake is to think platelets are full cells like red blood cells; they are actually small cell fragments. Also, some learners say *"I have low platelets count"* instead of the correct *"I have a low platelet count"* or *"My platelet count is low"*.
