Erro comum:
Learners sometimes confuse "recipient" with "receiver". "Receiver" can be a person, but it is also common for objects (like a TV receiver), while "recipient" is almost always a person. Another common mistake is using the wrong preposition, e.g., saying "the recipient to a prize" instead of "the recipient of a prize". Spelling errors such as *recipeint* are also frequent.
