טעות נפוצה:
Learners sometimes confuse "outset" with "onset". "Outset" means the beginning of an activity or process in general, while "onset" often refers to the start of something unpleasant or sudden, such as "the onset of winter" or "the onset of illness." Learners also sometimes use it without an article; in most cases you should say "the outset" and use it in fixed phrases like "at the outset" or "from the outset."
