常見錯誤

❌I bought a rechargable battery.
✅I bought a rechargeable battery.
💡the correct spelling keeps the 'e' from 'recharge' before adding '-able'.
❌This water bottle is rechargeable.
✅This water bottle is reusable.
💡rechargeable refers only to restoring electrical power, not to refilling with liquid.
