Častá chyba:
Learners often confuse "accurate" (adjective) and "accurately" (adverb). Use "accurate" before a noun ("an accurate report") and after linking verbs like "be" ("The report is accurate"), but use "accurately" to describe HOW an action is done ("He reported the facts accurately"). Another mistake is to overuse "exactly" where "accurately" is better in formal or technical writing; "accurately" is preferred when talking about measurements, data, or reports.
