Greșeală frecventă:
Learners sometimes think this word is similar in strength to words like "idiot" or "jerk". In fact, it is much stronger and is one of the most offensive insults in English, especially when used about women. It should almost never be used by learners, and never in polite or professional situations. Also, some learners do not realize that in British and Australian English it can be used about men, including jokingly among close friends, but it still sounds very rude to many speakers.
