Padron ng paggamit:
to weave [material] (from [threads/fibers])

A nagymamám otthon ruhának való anyagot sző.
He learns how to weave a small basket.
Azt tanulja, hogyan kell kis kosarat fonni.
The woman weaves a rug on the floor.
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners often confuse "weave" with "knit" or "sew". "Weave" means to cross threads or strips over and under each other to make a piece of material, while "knit" uses yarn with needles, and "sew" means to join pieces of fabric with a needle and thread. Another common mistake is verb forms: the past tense is "wove" and the past participle is "woven", not *weaved* in this sense.

Az autók cikázva haladnak a városi forgalomban.

Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes confuse "weave" with "wave" because they sound similar. "Weave" is about movement through space, often in a zigzag line, while "wave" usually means moving your hand or something back and forth. Some learners also say *drive zigzag* instead of "weave through traffic".
Kahulugan
move in and out while going
Mga kolokasyon
weave through traffic
|weave through the crowd
|weave in and out
|cars weaving
|weave around obstacles
Mga kasingkahulugan
zigzag (Focuses on the shape of the path; less on moving between other things.)
|
thread (As in "thread your way"; slightly more formal and careful in tone.)
Mga kasalungat
go straight (Describes moving without changing direction or going around obstacles, the opposite of weaving through them.)

The movie weaves love and war into one story.
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners may try to say *build a story* or *mix a story* in contexts where native speakers prefer "weave a story" or "weave something into a story". Also, they sometimes forget the object and say *He weaves well* when they mean "He weaves stories well" or "He weaves ideas together well."
Kahulugan
combine elements into a rich story
Mga kolokasyon
weave a story
|weave a tale
|weave a narrative
|weave a plot
|weave together ideas
|weave themes into
Mga kasingkahulugan
interweave (More formal and technical; strongly emphasizes the mixing of elements.)
|
blend (Suggests mixing things smoothly; less focus on complexity and structure.)
Mga kasalungat
separate (Means to keep things apart or take them apart, the opposite of combining them into one story or explanation.)

Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes confuse "weave" with "wig". A wig is a full head of hair you can take off, while a weave is hair that is attached to your own hair, often by sewing or braiding. Some also incorrectly use a plural *hairs* and say *many weaves* when talking about individual strands, instead of using the uncountable noun "hair".
Kahulugan
hairstyle with hair extensions
Mga kolokasyon
get a weave
|wear a weave
|sew-in weave
|full weave
|hair weave
Mga kasingkahulugan
hair extensions (More general; can refer to clip-in or other methods, not only styles called a "weave".)
Mga kasalungat

Padron ng paggamit:
the [tight/loose/plain] weave of [fabric]

Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners may use "pattern" when they really mean the structure of the threads, for example saying *a strong pattern* instead of "a tight weave". "Pattern" usually refers to printed designs like stripes or flowers, not to how the threads cross.
Kahulugan
structure or pattern of fabric
Mga kolokasyon
tight weave
|loose weave
|plain weave
|twill weave
|open weave
Mga kasingkahulugan
texture (Refers more generally to surface feel; only sometimes overlaps with the specific thread pattern.)

Piros tincseket dolgoz bele a fekete hajába.
She will weave extensions into my hair.
Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes use the regular past tense *weaved* ("She *weaved* my hair") for this salon meaning because it feels separate from the cloth sense. Many speakers still use the irregular forms "wove" and "woven" here, although "weaved" is also heard informally.
Kahulugan
attach extra hair to hair
Mga kolokasyon
weave hair
|weave in extensions
|weave extensions into
|have your hair woven
Mga kasingkahulugan
attach extensions (Directly names the action; more explanatory and less tied to salon jargon.)
