خطأ شائع:
Learners sometimes confuse "scornful" with the verb form "scorn" or the adjective "scorned". "Scornful" describes the person or thing that shows contempt (e.g., "a scornful comment"), while "scorned" usually describes someone who is rejected or treated with contempt (e.g., "a scorned lover"). Another common mistake is using the wrong preposition; the usual pattern is "scornful of something/someone", not *"scornful at"* or *"scornful on"*.
