Erro comum:
Learners sometimes confuse "orderly" with "ordinary." "Orderly" means neat and well arranged, while "ordinary" means normal or not special. Another mistake is using "orderly" as an adverb (e.g., *"They worked orderly"*). The correct form is "They worked in an orderly way" or "They worked in an orderly manner."
