Erro comum:
Learners often use 'boulevard' and 'street' or 'road' as if they were exactly the same. In many cities, a boulevard is usually wider, often has trees or a central strip, and is an important or grand city street. For everyday use, 'street', 'road', or 'avenue' are more common, and 'boulevard' is often part of proper names (e.g., 'Sunset Boulevard').
