Dažna klaida:
Learners sometimes use *consequently* in very casual speech where *so* or *and then* would sound more natural, making their English too formal. Another common mistake is word order, for example: *He consequently late came* instead of *He consequently came late* or *Consequently, he came late*. Learners may also confuse *consequently* with *subsequently*: *consequently* means 'as a result', while *subsequently* means 'after that in time'. Finally, some learners say *as consequently* or *because consequently*, which is incorrect; use either *because* or *consequently*, but not both together.
