ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners often think "apparatus" is always uncountable like "equipment". In modern English, "apparatus" is usually treated as singular countable when referring to one set (e.g. "a breathing apparatus"), and the plural is "apparatuses" (not *"apparata" in normal usage). Also, "apparatus" is more formal/technical than "equipment" and sounds strange in very casual speech.
