Yes, I've looked at it before. I noticed some "nonkies" (look wrong but not necessaril)y

1. I've never seen the word Carnevale in English English. We'd use carnival
2. There's a difference between councillor and counsellor: one is a member of local govt. - the other gives advice (counsels).
3. In EE I only know the word Rotunda, not rotonda.
4. You use the expression "Some of English speakers" as if translating directly from Serbian? or French.

I didn't notice a section on idiomatic expressions like that above.

Interesting site, all the same :-)
