Lỗi thường gặp:
Learners sometimes confuse "screenplay" with "play". A "play" is written for live theater on a stage, while a "screenplay" is written for a film or TV screen. Learners also sometimes use "screenplay" for any written text of a video, but for news videos or YouTube clips, "script" is usually more natural.
