Error frecuente:
Learners sometimes use *renowned* without the common prepositions, saying "He is renowned his work" instead of the correct "He is renowned for his work." Another mistake is using *renowned* where only "known" is appropriate, for example "I am renowned for being late" in casual conversation; *renowned* usually suggests a high level of fame and respect, not everyday habits.
