How it's used
Refers specifically to the formal or official price set by a business or market entity. While interchangeable with 價錢 in many contexts, 價格 carries a more professional or analytical tone often found in news reports or business discussions. Use 價錢 when talking about the cost of everyday items in casual conversation.

Common mistake
Learners often use 價格 for the cost of personal items, but it sounds overly formal or academic in casual settings. Stick to 價錢 for daily shopping to avoid sounding like a textbook or a news broadcast.
