Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes use 'bizarre' when they only mean 'a bit different' or 'special'. In English, 'bizarre' is quite strong and is used when something is very strange or hard to understand, not just slightly unusual or creative. It is also more formal than very casual words like 'weird' in some contexts.
