Padrão de uso:
Additionally, [clause]
Erro comum:
Learners often confuse "additionally" with "additional". "Additionally" is an adverb used to add a new point (e.g., "Additionally, we need more time"), while "additional" is an adjective used before a noun (e.g., "We need additional time"). Another common mistake is using "additionally" too often in informal speech, where "also" or "too" would sound more natural. Learners may also forget the comma when "Additionally" comes at the beginning of a sentence: it is usually written as "Additionally, ..." in formal writing.
