易混淆词

拼写提示

EN: Do not confuse 'plight' (a difficult situation) with the archaic verb 'plight' meaning to pledge (as in 'plight one's troth'). Also avoid confusing it with 'flight' or 'light' due to the shared '-ight' ending.
zh: 不要将“Plight”(困难处境)与古动词“Plight”(意为承诺,如“plight one's troth”)混淆。此外,由于共享“-ight”结尾,也要避免将其与“Flight”或“Light”混淆。
