Gyakori hiba:
Learners often confuse "onset" with "outset". "Onset" is usually used for the beginning of something unpleasant or serious (the onset of illness, the onset of war), while "outset" means the beginning of an activity or process in general (from the outset of the project). Another mistake is using "onset" as a verb; it is only a noun in modern English.
