Confused with 'legend' - 'legendary' describes something, while 'legend' is a noun., Using 'legendary' for things that are not famous enough., Mispronouncing as 'legandary'.	Confusing 'notable' with 'noteworthy' - they are similar but have different nuances., Using 'notable' as a verb instead of an adjective., Misplacing the adjective in a sentence, leading to awkward phrasing.

Note d'uso	Usa 'storico' per eventi o luoghi di significativa importanza. Evita di usarlo per eventi minori.

Usa 'leggendario' per descrivere persone, eventi o storie conosciute per la loro grandezza. Spesso usato in un contesto positivo ma può essere informale nelle conversazioni casuali. Use 'legendary' to describe people, events, or stories known for their greatness. Often used in a positive context but can be informal in casual conversations.	Usa 'notevole' per enfatizzare l'importanza o la distinzione, in particolare in contesti accademici o formali. Potrebbe non essere adatto a conversazioni informali dove parole più semplici come 'importante' potrebbero essere più appropriate. Use 'notable' to emphasize importance or distinction, particularly in academic or formal contexts. It may not fit casual conversations where simpler words like 'important' may be more suitable.
