Häufiger Fehler:
Learners often confuse "theorem" with "theory." A "theorem" is a statement in mathematics or logic that has been strictly proved to be true. A "theory" is a broad explanation of how something works, often in science, and may include many different ideas, models, and sometimes theorems. Learners may also mix up "theorem" with "formula": a "formula" is an equation or rule for calculation, while a "theorem" is a statement that must be proved and may or may not be written as a simple formula.
