常见错误：
Learners sometimes think 'fabricate' always means 'build' or 'make' because of the word 'fabric'. In modern English, when used with words like 'story', 'evidence', 'data', or 'rumor', it almost always means 'to invent something false'. Also, do not say *'fabricate about a story'*; the verb is transitive, so say 'fabricate a story', 'fabricate evidence', etc.

Learners often confuse this technical meaning with the 'lie' meaning. When 'fabricate' is used with words like 'parts', 'beams', 'components', 'metal', or 'frame', it usually means 'make/build', not 'invent something false'. Also, the verb needs an object: say 'fabricate metal parts', not *'fabricate in metal'* when you mean 'make parts from metal'.
