常见错误：
Learners sometimes confuse "uncommon" with "strange" or "weird". "Uncommon" mainly means that something does not happen often; it is about frequency, not necessarily about being strange. Another common confusion is with the phrase "not uncommon": it means "fairly common" or "quite common", not "rare". The two negatives cancel out in meaning, but the phrase sounds more careful or formal.
