常见错误：
Learners sometimes say *"make a lawsuit"* instead of *"file a lawsuit"* or *"bring a lawsuit"*. Use verbs like *file*, *bring*, *start*, or *pursue* with *lawsuit*. Another common mistake is confusing *law* and *lawsuit*: *law* is the system of rules; a *lawsuit* is one specific case in court.
