Kesilapan biasa:
Learners sometimes use "trivial" for anything "small" in size, even when it is actually important (for example, "a trivial cut" when it may be medically serious). "Trivial" is about importance, not physical size. Some also confuse "trivial" with "trivia" (interesting small facts); "trivial" usually has a negative tone, while "trivia" can be positive or neutral.

Learners sometimes use only "easy" and do not learn "trivial" as a near-synonym that also carries a slight idea of being unimportant. Also, they may say "I am trivial to do it" instead of the correct form "It is trivial for me to do it" or "It is trivial to do."
Maksud

effortless (Stresses that almost no effort is needed, sometimes more strongly than "trivial".)

Learners may think "trivial" is always negative. In technical writing, it often neutrally classifies simple or obvious cases and contrasts them with "nontrivial" ones. Another mistake is to assume "trivial" in math means "useless"; it usually means "simple" or "obvious," not necessarily useless.
Maksud

Sinonim
obvious (General word; in technical writing, often used similarly for results that follow directly without deep ideas.)
|

Antonim
