Dažna klaida:
Learners sometimes say *"do harmony"* or *"make harmony"* instead of using verbs like *"live in harmony," "bring harmony,"* or *"achieve harmony." Another mistake is using *"a harmony"* to mean general peace; in this sense, "harmony" is usually uncountable ("we want harmony," not *"a harmony"*).

Dažna klaida:
Learners sometimes confuse "harmony" with "melody." Melody is the main tune you sing or remember; harmony is the notes that go with the melody. Another mistake is saying *"hear the harmonies"* when they mean a single overall effect; in general descriptions, use uncountable "harmony" ("The harmony is beautiful"), and countable "harmonies" mainly when talking about different specific types or passages of harmony.
