Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes use "do" instead of "execute" in formal writing. "Do a plan" is incorrect; use "carry out a plan" or "execute a plan". They may also confuse this sense with the "kill as a punishment" sense; in business or work contexts, "execute" almost always means to carry out a plan, not to kill someone.
