Erro comum:
Learners sometimes say *"I am thankfully"* instead of *"I am thankful"* when talking about their own feeling, or they say *"thankfully for"* instead of *"thankful for"*. Use **thankfully** before a whole sentence ("Thankfully, we arrived on time"), and **thankful** as an adjective with *for* ("I am thankful for your help").
