Częsty błąd:
Learners often confuse "pail" with "pale" (the adjective meaning "light in color" or "not strong"). They may also not realize that in modern English, especially in everyday speech, "bucket" is more common than "pail", and the two words are usually interchangeable when talking about this kind of container.
