Частая ошибка:
Learners sometimes confuse "compassionate" with "passionate." "Compassionate" means kind and caring toward someone who is suffering, while "passionate" means having strong feelings or enthusiasm about something. Another mistake is using it only for feelings and not behavior; in fact, it usually implies both feeling and acting with kindness.
