Veelgemaakte fout:
Learners sometimes use *subcommittee* when *committee* is more natural, especially for general school or club groups that are not part of a larger committee. Also, learners may say *subcommittee of education* instead of the more natural *subcommittee on education* when referring to topic-based subcommittees.
