Greșeală frecventă:
Learners sometimes confuse "booth" with "room" or "office". A booth is usually small, temporary, and for a single, simple purpose, while a room or office is larger and used for many things. Another confusion is with "table": a booth is a small structure or stall, not just a flat surface.
Sens
Small structure for services or activities
