Частая ошибка:
Learners sometimes say *"many people live thick"* instead of *"the area is thickly populated"*. Remember that *thickly* usually modifies a past participle like *populated*, *wooded*, or a verb like *grow* (*trees grow thickly*). Also, do not confuse *thickly* with *thick* when describing distribution: say *trees grow thickly*, not *trees grow thick*.

Частая ошибка:
Learners sometimes use *strongly* or *a lot* instead of *thickly* when talking about a physical layer (for example, *"He put butter a lot"*). Use *thickly* to describe a deep layer: *"He spread butter thickly."* Also, remember that *thick* is an adjective (*a thick layer*), while *thickly* is the adverb (*spread it thickly*).
