Dažna klaida:
Learners often say *obedient with* or *obedient of* instead of the correct preposition *obedient to*, as in: "Children should be obedient to their parents." Another mistake is confusing *obedient* with *polite* or *kind*; *obedient* specifically means doing what you are told or what rules say, not just being nice.
