Gyakori hiba:
Learners sometimes confuse "disciple" with "discipline" because they look similar. "Disciple" is a person who follows a teacher or set of ideas, while "discipline" is control, training, or a field of study. Another common mistake is using the preposition "to" instead of "of"; the natural pattern is "a disciple of [someone/something]", not "a disciple to".
