عام غلطی:
Learners often confuse "fog" and "mist". Both are made of tiny water drops, but "fog" is thicker and makes it harder to see. Also, some say *"a fogs"*; remember that "fog" is usually an uncountable noun in the weather sense ("There is fog", not *"There are fogs"*), except in set phrases like "a thick fog" or "fogs are common here in winter".
معنی
