טעות נפוצה:
Learners sometimes confuse "vehemence" with "violence". "Vehemence" usually describes very strong emotions or way of speaking, while "violence" usually involves physical harm. Another mistake is using the wrong preposition: we normally say "with vehemence" or "the vehemence of his reply", not *"in vehemence" or *"vehemence of he reply".
