Συχνό λάθος:
Learners sometimes confuse "dye" with "paint" or "ink". "Dye" is usually for changing the color of things by soaking or treating them (hair, fabric, food), while "paint" is spread on a surface (walls, paper, nails). They also sometimes mix up the spelling and write "die" instead of "dye".

Συχνό λάθος:
Learners often confuse the spelling of the -ing form, writing "dying" instead of "dyeing". "Dying" is from the verb "die" (to stop living), while "dyeing" is from "dye" (to color something). They may also incorrectly use "dye" for things normally painted, saying *"dye the wall"* instead of "paint the wall".
