Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes confuse "simulate" with "stimulate". "Simulate" means to copy or recreate how something happens (e.g. "simulate an accident"), while "stimulate" means to cause something to become more active or to grow (e.g. "stimulate the economy"). Also, do not use "as" after "simulate": say "simulate a conversation", not "simulate as a conversation".
