ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners often confuse "perpetuate" with "perpetrate." "Perpetuate" means to make something continue, usually a problem or belief. "Perpetrate" means to do or commit something bad, such as a crime (e.g., "perpetrate a crime"). Many also try to use "perpetuate" alone without an object; it is almost always followed by what is being continued (e.g., "perpetuate a myth," not just "perpetuate").

ข้อผิดพลาดที่พบบ่อย:
Learners sometimes use this formal sense in everyday speech where a simpler verb like "keep" or "remember" is more natural (e.g., saying "perpetuate his memory" in casual talk instead of "keep his memory alive"). They may also forget that this sense can be positive or neutral, unlike the more common negative social-problem sense.
