பொதுவான தவறு:
Learners sometimes confuse "hoax" with "joke" or "prank". A joke is usually light and funny, and people often know it is not serious. A hoax is a serious lie or false story that is presented as true to make people believe it. Also, avoid saying "do a hoax"; more natural phrases are "play a hoax", "carry out a hoax", or "create a hoax".
