常見錯誤

She is a rambler who enjoys slow walks in the park.
She is an ambler who enjoys slow walks in the park.
'Rambler' refers to someone who walks long distances in the countryside for pleasure, while 'ambler' emphasises the slow, unhurried pace.

I saw a group of amblers strolling down the street.
'Amblers' are defined by their relaxed pace, so pairing with 'power-walking' contradicts the meaning.
