Sık yapılan hata:
Learners sometimes say *“lioness”* when they mean any lion. Use *“lion”* as the general word, and *“lioness”* only when you want to say it is a female. Another mistake is confusing lions and tigers; remember lions live mainly in Africa and have manes (males), while tigers live in Asia and have stripes.
