Greșeală frecventă:
Learners often confuse "optic" with "optical." "Optic" is most common in medical or biological phrases like "optic nerve," while "optical" is more general and used for devices or physics, like "optical lens" or "optical cable." Learners may also try to use "optic" on its own to mean eyesight (e.g., *"My optic is bad"*), but natural English uses "eyesight" or "vision" instead.
