Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes confuse "instant" (an adjective or noun) with "instantly" (an adverb). For example, they might say *"I need an answer instant"* instead of *"I need an answer instantly"*. Another common mistake is overusing "instantly" where "soon" or "quickly" would sound more natural, especially when there is some small delay.
