Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes confuse "hostility" with "hospitality" because they look similar. "Hostility" means unfriendliness or anger, while "hospitality" means warm and friendly welcome. Also, learners may try to use it as an adjective (e.g., *a hostility person*); the correct adjective is "hostile" (e.g., *a hostile person*).
