Dažna klaida:
Learners sometimes confuse "formally" with "formerly". "Formally" means in a polite or official way, while "formerly" means in the past or earlier. For example, "He was formerly the manager" (in the past), not "He was formally the manager" unless you mean he held the position in an official way. Learners may also think "formally" always means "in writing"; it can be spoken or written, as long as it is serious and follows social rules.

Dažna klaida:
Learners often use "officially" where "formally" would also work. This is usually fine, but "formally" puts more focus on following the correct process, words, or ceremony. Do not confuse "formally" with "formerly" (earlier, in the past). For example, "The country is formally known as the Republic of Korea" means this is its official name; "The country was formerly known as..." means it had a different name in the past.
