Kesalahan umum:
Learners often use only "break" when describing glass or ceramic objects. "Shatter" is better when something breaks into many small pieces, usually with force and a sharp sound. Also, learners sometimes say "shatter into many pieces" and also add a number like "a thousand pieces"; usually one clear phrase ("into pieces" or "into a thousand pieces") is enough.
