The correction Bot doesn't recognise "épargner" for to save up?

épargner is a correct translation for to save up but the bot changed it to économiser.

Hi Niall,

You wouldn't use 'épargner' for, to save up for a holiday and putting some money by.

Although it can mean to save, you will use it in the case of a savings fund ( livret de caisse d' épargne'  - Épargne -Logement  ) for your old days  or to buy a house

 Hope this helps!
