خطأ شائع:
Learners sometimes use "recur" as a transitive verb, for example *"They recurred the test"*, which is incorrect. "Recur" is intransitive: you say "the test recurred" or "the problem recurred." Many learners also confuse "recur" with "reoccur"; both mean "happen again," but "recur" is more common in careful writing, especially for things that happen repeatedly. Spelling mistakes like *"reoccuring"* instead of "recurring" are also frequent.
المعنى
happen again, often repeatedly

المرادفات

memory recurs
|image recurs
|the thought recurs
|idea recurs

خطأ شائع:
Learners may try to use "recur" transitively, for example *"She recurs the topic"*. In this formal sense, it is used with "to": you recur to a topic, question, or issue. This usage is formal and not common in everyday speech; most of the time, "return to" or "go back to" is more natural.
المعنى

خطأ شائع:
Learners sometimes confuse "recur" with general repetition in programming. In technical contexts, "recur" usually means the function or definition directly calls itself (recursion), not just any kind of loop or repeated action.

the function recurs
|algorithm recurs on each element
|procedure recurs until a base case
|recurs on smaller inputs
|recurs in its own definition
المرادفات

الأضداد
