Συχνό λάθος:
Learners sometimes confuse "willingness" with "will" or "wish." "Will" can mean future or personal strength, and "wish" is about wanting something that is not real. "Willingness" is specifically about being ready to do something. Learners also sometimes say *"willingness for do"* or *"willingness for helping"*; the correct pattern is usually "willingness to do [something]" or "willingness to help."
