Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes confuse "cumulative" with "continuous". "Continuous" means something does not stop, while "cumulative" means it gets bigger or stronger because more pieces are added over time. They also sometimes use it for a single, one‑time increase; it should describe a result of repeated additions.

Learners sometimes use "cumulative" when they only mean "last" or "recent". "Cumulative" should mean that the number or result includes everything up to this time, not just one part. They also confuse it with "average"; a cumulative score is a total, not necessarily divided by the number of items.
Význam
including all previous parts

|cumulative grade point average
|cumulative data
