Частая ошибка:
Learners sometimes use 'sundry' with a singular noun (e.g. *'a sundry item'*). In modern English, it is almost always used before a plural noun, like 'sundry items' or 'sundry problems'. It is also more formal or literary than 'various', so it may sound strange in very casual speech.
