Greșeală frecventă:
Learners sometimes confuse "manifesto" with "demonstration" or "protest" and think it means a public march. A manifesto is a written (or published) statement of ideas and plans, not the physical act of protesting. Learners may also confuse it with "manifestation", which usually means a sign or result of something, not a policy document.
