Kesilapan biasa:
Learners sometimes confuse "pitcher" with "picture" because they sound similar. A "pitcher" is a container for liquids, while a "picture" is an image. Some learners also say *"cup of water"* when they mean a larger shared container; in that case, "pitcher of water" is correct.

Learners sometimes use "pitcher" for players in other sports who throw or pass a ball (for example, in soccer or American football). "Pitcher" is only used for baseball and softball. It is also sometimes confused in spelling with "picture"; remember that "pitcher" comes from the verb "to pitch" (to throw).
