Častá chyba:
Learners often confuse "concur" with "occur" because they look similar; however, "concur" means "to agree," while "occur" means "to happen." Another common mistake is using the preposition *to* ("concur to"), which is incorrect; the usual patterns are "concur with [someone/something]" or "concur that [clause]." Learners also sometimes use it in very casual speech where "agree" is more natural, making their English sound too stiff.

Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes assume this sense also means "agree," but here "concur" is about time, not opinion. In this meaning, it usually does **not** take a clause with "that"; instead it links events ("X concurred with Y"), so sentences like *"The meeting concurred that we should leave"* are wrong for this sense and actually use the "agree" sense.
