عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes confuse a “whirlwind of activity” with a specific weather event like a tornado. In this figurative sense, it does not describe the weather; it describes a very busy time or many emotions. Also, do not say *“whirlwind activities”* when you mean the period; use *“a whirlwind of activities.”*
معنی
Very busy, fast series of events
