Tyypillinen virhe:
Learners sometimes say *"reconsider about something"* (e.g., *"I will reconsider about my job"*). In English, *reconsider* takes a direct object: *"I will reconsider my job"* or *"I will reconsider it"*. Another mistake is using an infinitive instead of a gerund: say *"reconsider changing jobs"*, not *"reconsider to change jobs"*. Learners also sometimes use *reconsider* where simple *consider* is better; *reconsider* implies you have already thought or decided once before.

Tyypillinen virhe:
Learners may not realize this is a more formal, legal or bureaucratic use.

Do not confuse it with a casual personal change of mind; here it describes an official process.
