자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes use "soon" instead of "promptly". "Soon" means after a short time, but not necessarily immediately, while "promptly" means with no delay. For example, "Please reply soon" is weaker and less urgent than "Please reply promptly." Learners also sometimes put "promptly" in the wrong place in the sentence; it usually goes before or after the main verb ("promptly replied" or "replied promptly").

자주 하는 실수：
Learners sometimes think "promptly" here means "quickly" during the event, but it describes the timing of the start, not the speed of the action. Another mistake is to put "promptly" after the time ("at 7 promptly"), which is possible but less natural than "promptly at 7" or "starts promptly at 7."
