Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes use "serene" for any kind of happiness or fun. "Serene" means calm and peaceful, not excited. For example, a party is usually "fun" or "lively", not "serene". Learners also sometimes confuse "serene" with "silent"; something can be serene even if there is soft sound, as long as it is peaceful and not stressful.
