fail to do something needed
To not do something that you should do or are expected to do, often because you forget or do not think about it.
Käyttömalli:
omit to do [something]; omit doing [something]
Tyypillinen virhe:
Learners may overuse **omit** in everyday speech where **forget to** or **fail to** are more natural (e.g., "I forgot to call you" is more common than "I omitted to call you"). They may also confuse **omit to do** with **avoid doing**, but **omit** usually suggests oversight, not a deliberate decision to not do something.
Synonyymit
neglect (Often suggests carelessness or lack of proper attention; "omit" is more neutral and formal, especially in written or legal contexts.)
Antonyymit
carry out (Means to perform or do a task as expected, the opposite of failing to do it.)
