Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes confuse “rabble” with the neutral word “crowd.” “Rabble” is always negative and suggests noise, anger, or lack of control. Another common mistake is confusing the spelling and pronunciation with “rubble” (broken pieces of stone or brick), which has a completely different meaning.
