Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes think “cor” is common in all English varieties, but it is mainly British and sounds informal or a bit old-fashioned in some contexts. It should not be used in formal writing. Learners may also confuse “cor” with the more common word “core”; these are unrelated in meaning and pronunciation.
