shop that sells books
A shop where you can buy books.
รูปแบบการใช้:
to go to [a bookstore]
ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners often confuse "bookstore" with "library". A bookstore is a place where you buy books, while a library is a place where you borrow books, usually for free. Another point: in British English, "bookshop" is more common, but in North American English, "bookstore" is the usual word.
