Częsty błąd:
Learners sometimes confuse "locality" with "location." "Location" is usually a specific point or exact place (for example, an address or coordinates), while "locality" is a wider area or neighborhood around a place. In many everyday situations, "area" or "neighborhood" is more natural than "locality."
