Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes confuse the adjective "unjust" with the adverb "unjustly". Use "unjust" before a noun ("an unjust law") or after linking verbs ("The law is unjust"), and use "unjustly" to describe how an action is done ("He was unjustly punished"). Another common mistake is writing *"not justly"* when the intended meaning is "unjustly"; "not justly" is rare and can sound unclear or overly formal.
