Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes use "attainment" in everyday speech where simple verbs like "get" or "reach" are more natural, e.g. saying *"the attainment of a job"* instead of *"getting a job"*. Also, they may confuse "attainment" with "obtainment"; however, in modern English, people usually say "getting" or "obtaining" something, and use "attainment" mainly with abstract goals (e.g. peace, independence, success).
