عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use *ghostly* when they only mean *very quiet* or *empty*. *Ghostly* usually suggests something looks or feels like a ghost, often pale, weak, or hard to see. For simple *very quiet*, you can say *silent* or *very quiet* instead of *ghostly* unless you want a spooky feeling.
