Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes use *sun* instead of *sunshine* when they mean the light and warmth. *Sun* is the star itself, while *sunshine* is the light and heat it gives us, as in 'sit in the sunshine', not 'sit in the sun' (though both are possible, *sunshine* focuses more on the pleasant light).
Kahulugan

Mga kolokasyon

|warm sunshine
|in the sunshine

|out in the sunshine
Mga kasingkahulugan

Mga kasalungat
shade (Refers to an area where direct sunshine is blocked.)
