Learners may also confuse *forbearance* (noun) with *forebear* (noun, meaning ancestor) because they look similar.

Learners often think *forbearance* means that the debt is forgiven. In fact, forbearance usually only pauses or reduces payments for a time; the money is still owed. It is also easy to confuse *forbearance* with general words like *relief* or *help*, which are less precise in legal and financial contexts.
