Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes confuse "perpetrator" with "victim". Remember: the perpetrator does the crime; the victim suffers from it. Another mistake is overusing it for small, everyday actions; it is usually used for serious wrongdoing like crimes, attacks, or serious abuse, not for minor mistakes.
