Kesalahan umum:
Learners sometimes use *accordingly* in very casual speech where *so* or *because of that* sounds more natural, for example, saying *I was tired, accordingly I went to bed early* in conversation. In everyday spoken English, *so* is usually preferred: *I was tired, so I went to bed early.* Also, some confuse this sense with the ‘in a suitable way’ sense, using it where *appropriately* would be better.

Kesalahan umum:
Learners sometimes mix this sense with the ‘as a result’ sense and place *accordingly* at the start of a sentence when they really mean ‘in a suitable way’. For example, *Accordingly, he acted* can sound like ‘for that reason he acted’, not ‘he acted in a suitable way’. To express this sense clearly, it is often safer to say *act accordingly* or *behave accordingly* after mentioning the situation.
