اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes say *tailor for* when the meaning is ‘adjust exactly to a need’. In many cases, **tailor [something] to [someone/something]** is more natural, for example: “tailor the course **to** your needs”, not “tailor the course for your needs.” They may also confuse this sense with the clothing sense and think it can only be used about clothes.
