اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes confuse 'abusive' with 'abused'. 'Abusive' describes the person who causes harm (an abusive parent), while 'abused' usually describes the victim (an abused child). Another mistake is using the wrong preposition: English prefers 'abusive toward/to someone', not 'abusive with someone'.
