Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes say *"a congestion"* for this meaning. In most cases, "congestion" is uncountable: say "There is heavy congestion" or "a traffic jam", not "a congestion". Learners also sometimes use only "jam" as a noun (*"There was a jam"*); in neutral English it is clearer to say "a traffic jam" or "heavy congestion".

Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners often say *"I have a congestion"*; in natural English we say "I have congestion" or "I’m congested" or "I have a blocked nose". Another mistake is confusing "congestion" with "infection". Congestion is about blockage and mucus; infection is about germs (bacteria or viruses).
Kahulugan
blocked nose or chest condition
Mga kolokasyon

|chest congestion
|sinus congestion
|relieve congestion

Mga kasingkahulugan
stuffiness (More informal and mainly used for a blocked nose; "congestion" is slightly more medical and can refer to the chest as well.)
Mga kasalungat
clear sinuses (Describes the opposite state, when the nasal passages are open and free of mucus.)
Mga tema
