Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes confuse "resent" with "recent" because they look similar, but "recent" means "not long ago" and is usually an adjective. Another mistake is using "resent" to mean simply "hate"; "resent" is specifically about anger or bitterness caused by something you feel is unfair or disrespectful, often with a sense that this feeling lasts over time. Learners may also forget that "resent" takes an object, as in "I resent him" or "She resents the decision," or a verb in -ing form, as in "They resent being told what to do."
