الگوی کاربرد:
[something] is inexorable
اشتباه رایج:

الگوی کاربرد:
[someone] is inexorable in [their decision]
اشتباه رایج:
Learners may overuse this sense with everyday, mild firmness. In normal conversation, words like "strict" or "firm" are more natural; "inexorable" sounds very strong and formal. Do not use it for small, casual decisions.
