Kosa la kawaida:
Learners sometimes confuse 'biodiversity' with general words like 'nature' or 'environment', but 'biodiversity' specifically refers to how many different kinds of living things are present. Another common mistake is treating 'biodiversity' as a countable noun (e.g., 'many biodiversities'); in standard use it is almost always uncountable: 'high biodiversity', 'loss of biodiversity'.
