సాధారణ తప్పు:
Learners sometimes confuse "censor" with "sensor" (a device that detects things) or with the verb "censure" (to criticize formally). "Censor" is about blocking or cutting information before it reaches people. Also, some learners use an incorrect object, e.g. saying "censor people" when it is more natural to say "censor what people say" or "censor the speech".
