خطأ شائع:
Learners often say *compose of* instead of the correct passive form *be composed of* (e.g., *Water composes of hydrogen and oxygen* is wrong; correct is *Water is composed of hydrogen and oxygen*). They may also confuse this with *make* or *build*, using *compose* in very basic contexts where it sounds unnatural (e.g., *He composed a cake* instead of *He made a cake*).
