Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes use "mournful" for light or everyday sadness (for example, saying "I feel mournful because my team lost"), but it is usually used for deeper, more serious sadness, often related to death or a big loss. Some also confuse the adjective "mournful" with the verb "mourn" and say "I am mournful for him" instead of "I mourn for him" or "I feel mournful about him."
