易错句子There are three bury in this county.
正确表达There are three buries in this county.
汉语名词不随数词改变形式，学习者常在数词后漏掉复数词尾。bury 是可数名词，复数形式为 buries（辅音字母 + y 结尾变 -ies），所以搭配 three 时必须说 three buries。

易错句子The old berry was once a manor.
正确表达The old bury was once a manor.
bury 与 berry 同音（均为 /ˈbɛri/），但 berry 意为“浆果”，与“自治市镇；庄园”这一词义毫无关系。表达“自治市镇；庄园”时必须写 bury，因此 'The old bury was once a manor.' 才正确。
