Greșeală frecventă:
Learners sometimes confuse "wisely" with "smartly." In many varieties of English, "smartly" often means "in a stylish way" (e.g., "dressed smartly"), not "with good judgment." Another mistake is using the adjective form where the adverb is needed, e.g., saying *"He decided wise"* instead of *"He decided wisely"*.
