Častá chyba:
Learners often confuse "atonement" with a simple "apology". An apology is usually only words, while atonement usually involves concrete actions to repair the harm. Another issue is countability: "atonement" is usually uncountable (e.g., "seek atonement"), though in religious or literary style you may see "an atonement".
