Learners sometimes confuse "deplete" with "delete" because they look similar. "Deplete" means to use something up so little remains, while "delete" means to remove text, files, or data. Another mistake is using it without an object, e.g. "The lake depleted"; it is usually used with an object, as in "The heat depleted the lake."
