Kesilapan biasa:
Learners sometimes say *a very trusty person* to mean *very honest or faithful*. While understandable, 'trusty' is less common than 'reliable' or 'trustworthy' for people in modern English and is usually used before a noun (a trusty friend), often with a warm or story-like tone. Also, do not confuse 'trusty' with 'trustful': 'trustful' describes someone who easily trusts others, while 'trusty' describes someone others can trust.
