Greșeală frecventă:
Learners sometimes use "reportedly" to mean that they themselves are reporting something, but it actually shows that the information comes from other people or sources, not from the speaker. Another common mistake is placing it at the very end of the sentence (e.g., "He left the country reportedly"), which sounds unnatural; it usually goes before the main verb or after the verb "be" (e.g., "He reportedly left the country" or "He was reportedly tired").
