Частая ошибка:
Learners often confuse the noun 'cleanup' with the verb phrase 'clean up'. Use 'cleanup' as a thing or event: 'We did a cleanup of the room.' Use 'clean up' as a verb: 'We need to clean up the room.' Another common mistake is omitting the article: in singular countable use, say 'a cleanup', not just 'cleanup'.
